We were lucky enough to take a boat ride on a tall ship and captured these photos

The Completed Project!
 |
| The signature before grouting |
 |
| Grouting |
 |
| Done. |
 |
| Because we grout in one colour, it ends up looking too light in the dark spots. We can't use darker grout or else it would look too dark in the light spots. |
 |
| So we applied a stone/tile enhancer that ends up making the grout a bit darker |
 |
| You can see the part that I hadn't got yet clearly |
 |
| Sometimes, depending on the light, the piece becomes unrecognizable, yet still beautiful |
 |
| Stephen was kind enough to suggest we include initials of all the mosaicists that worked on the project and they mixed in perfectly |
 |
| Not an initial but a piece of smalti that looks like a ghost. |
 |
| Soon, the hotel will be completed and look beautiful. For now, it is still a construction site. |
 |
| Our last view of an amazing project. Thanks to Stephen and everyone building the Trump hotel, this was a great installation! |
