*WOW* It must be tough to have so much money. As much as money can't buy happiness, it can't help but eradicate some misery, *LOL*
Do you guys have to chill swimming pools (with heat-pumps) as is done in Arizona?
Are those all palm trees or do we have wind tubines shown as well?
So when is the wash-in at your place with pool-party to follow?

Don't forget those immortal words spoken by Mrs. Howell (Eunice "Lovey" Wentworth Howell) on Gilligan's Island..."people that say money can't buy happiness just don't know the right places to shop."

Spankomatic you beat me to it!
I wanted to post this yesterday but could not because I was at work.
Here is more information about it!
The swimming pool and the artificial lagoon at San Alfonso Del Mar Resort in Chile are eight hectares (20 acres) in size. The pool was acknowledged by Guinness World Records as being the world’s largest swimming pool at 3,323ft in length, covering an area of 20 acres, has a capacity of 250,000 cubic meters of water and is navigable in small boats.
The size of the lagoon is equivalent to 6,000 standard-size 8-meter long swimming pools. It cost $1.5 billion to create and fill and each 6 months $2 million will be spend for maintenance. The lagoon’s water temperature in summer is 26 ºC (78.8 ºF), nine degrees warmer than the ocean and certainly a feature all the guests appreciate.
