Create the dunes with an isosurface inspired from the POVray's file
'Benchmark.pov'
The swimming pool, the table, the chairs are CSG
The parasol is a CSG difference between superellipsoid & box
The palmtrees are inc files from Tom Aust : www.aust-anfertigungen.de - with

I can do a larger swimming pool, but I want to see more sand than water !
