Election day

Today I enjoyed one of my legal rights as a citizen of this country and voted in the big election that is held every 4th year.

We have three elections at one time – election to parliament, county council and local government. One yellow, one blue and one white paper – one in each envelope. Then the votes get registered and counted and sometime tonight we will know a preliminary result of the election.

And there is still some apple cake left for the afternoon coffee!! Life is pretty good.
