Ulovane Progress @ 24 December

Not much to report on progress as at 24 December, herewith some pics of the kitchen showing the under coat of paint and the tiling that has begun where the stove belongs. Sad to report that the builders did not complete as required. Keep watching this space, the builders were all back on site on the 5th January, so roll on end of January for completion.

13th December progress

Top left is the boma which is HUGE, holds all the solar panels on the left and thatch on the right. The deck has been started outside the lounge and lecture room.
Bottom left is a view from the kitchen into the lounge and right at the end you can see the start of the fire place.
And yes Yippee!! the first toilet and shower are starting to take shape.

Watch this space next year for the fantastic completion of Ulovane Camp

Ulovane Camp update

Saturday 29 November

Yippee! they are beginning the thatch on the lecture and lounge rooms of the main lodge.

Plus an additional venture, a bomma to hold the solar panels.

And the famous rock path way which is turning out to be a huge mission, but going to be fantastic when completed.

Keep it up guys! getting there

Ulovane Camp Progress 21 November 08

Visted the camp on Saturday, progress is going quickly, although with builders closing down they only have 3 weeks to go.

Lots of excitement going on to see the finished product.

Top left is the first set of rooms.

Bottom left is the path way which Schalk and Ben are personally carrying rocks or rolling rocks to big to carry to form the path way to rooms via the main lodge

Top right is the entrance into the main lodge.

Bottom right is a further back view of the outside of the main lodge. The stone work that is been laid is absolutely stunning.

Watch this space for more updates.
