Voting Day

A great thing about South Africa is that voting day is a national holiday. And this is how I spent it:

1. woke up at crack of dawn to vote in the hopes that no line will have yet been formed so early.

2. Hopes dashed as line wrapped around into the parking lot

3. left line after 10 minutes

4. spent the day at the rhino and lion park and restled lion cubs

5. returned home later that afternoon and voted, this time there was no line whatsoever.

6. Along with many other south africans, managed to keep Zuma and the ANC from obtaining 2/3rds of the majority therefore keeping his amount of power in check.

Day well spent.
