A group of us South African in front of the New South African Embassy on Wednesday the 15th of April after we proudly made our mark and voted. This was a proud moment as we were the first South African to vote in Benin. The SA Embassy staff have been a great support to us on the ship and they are very proud of what we are doing. A few weeks ago they came for a braai on board and next week we have been invited to the Embassy for Freedom Day Celebration on the 26th of April.
I even have the thumb to prove it. I was surprised to hear that no other countries 'mark' their voters. People think i have hurt my thumb, and when i tell they why they are very interested to find out. Even though it does not look very pretty - i wear it proudly!
