Yowza!
What a beautiful woman! Actually, they are all beautiful. I would almost hate to be the one to decide (but I'd like to have a chance to do so!)
Hot Diggity!
It is kind of hard to see what Miss Zambia and Miss Kenya look like.
The two best girlfriends I ever had were from Peru. I should have married the last one.
The winner looks like Penelope Cruz..which is, to say, a very good thing..
I had a Thread dealing with a pretty woman pulled the other day..............and here you have many!
