Views of Arizona: Mother of Pearl Pool

The mother of pearl pool was the only pool at the Phoenician resort a quarter century ago on our first visit. Now several pools have been added above it. The pool is covered with mother of pearl tiles which seem less shimmery to me than they were back then, but then so does everything else.

Views of Arizona: Phoenician Fakery

I can't really object to using fake grass in the desert where water is so precious. But, while I wouldn't want to put any waterfowl at risk, perhaps I can still object purely on esthetic grounds to the fake swans.
