I've been debating-slash-drooling over the condos in Milton for a loooong time. Like a few years long time. On Saturday I reached a tipping point and went back to the sales office to see what was left, thinking it would only be the most expensive units.

For a casual "post-wedding toast to the couple" afternoon event (not quite reception, i think - they got married in south africa) - my boyfriend's cousin and his new wifey in a few weeks. With tights (for december warmth) and probably strapless tank underneath instead of the white strap as showing in the second pic. Vote now!
