THE APARTMENT

The complex - the units are situated on a corner block, and are designed with a "hacienda" look - two photos, which include our 'twin' cars!!! - both are 1994 Ford Festivas, and ours is the blue two-door and Tanya's is the white four-door

Tanya's unit - right on the end of the complex, Tanya's is the ground floor unit which overlooks the the pool - a fabulous position!!! - two photos, and the window in the unit is her living room - what a great view!!!

Front entrance - two photos, which show the tropical gardens surrounding the unit's main entrance

The pool gate - Tanya's front door and the gate to the pool area - not far to go for a swim!!!

The swimming pool - looks nice!!! - the arched doorway leads to the unit's front entrance and patio, the middle window is the living room, and the smaller window is the kitchen

The patio - walking up to the front door, you pass through this small patio - the arched doors and windows look fantastic - two photos

The living room and kitchen - taken from just inside the front entance, these two photos show the living areas of the unit - and Sharon and Tanya are in the background

The living room - taken from the kitchen - the sliding glass doors are the unit's front entrance/patio as mentioned above - as Tanya's friend had only a small television, her 'big-screen' model is now the entertainment centre, along with her VCR and DVD player (which was her Christmas present) - and by the way, the cigarettes are mine!!!

Looking out the living room window - this is a very nice outlook!!! - especially on a 'stinking hot day' as it was when we took these photos!!!

Tanya's room - which is a good size - I was unable to include them in the pictures but it has a complete wall of floor-to-ceiling wardrobes with mirrored-doors - and they are huge!!! - heaps of storage space - Tanya has decorated with cross-stitch, paintings and family photos - three photos

The bathroom - which is really nice and bright

"The Throne" - every house has got to have one of these!!! - where all the major decisions are made!!!

Driveway and rear door - the carports for all the apartments are to the right of these photos - the door in the top picture leads into Tanya's kitchen - and there is that lovely pool again!!! - two photos
