Weekend Snapshot
I saw this sign yesterday on my way back home from voting. It was election day in Spain and a milestone in my life since it was the first time I could vote as a Spanish citizen. Therefore I had no doubt about it, I was going to go vote. For the undecided, however, there was this sign in my neighborhood, it reads "Vote, Manolo" on an old painting (check out the sky to find the two words)... somebody does this type of things around elections to remind us - in a very creative way - of our civil obligations.
that's definitely much better than the ones we are used to seeing around here during election time! :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a funny way to make publicity ! But now I am very surprised and also curious. How does it come that you took the spanish Nationality ?? Aren't you German by marriage ? Or are you both now ? As I am Italian and German.
ReplyDeleteI'm also interested in the answer to Gattina's question.
ReplyDeleteLove the sign post!
It's good that you exercised your right to vote. Hope you had a peaceful and fair elections.
ReplyDeleteYou have to love that! That's one lovely way to make you look and make you think.
ReplyDeleteI love that sign. It looks so much better on the landscape than the ordinary signs that come up everywhere in my town.
ReplyDeleteThat is a nice, fairly subtle way to reminding you!
ReplyDeleteMuch NICER than the platoon of VOTE FOR signs that get planted in our median strips! I would really APPRECIATE that kind of reminder!!!
ReplyDeleteI try to vote at every election. It's a good thing to vote. Have a great week!
ReplyDeletepretty neat! thanks for sharing some info...mine's up too!
ReplyDeleteway better than the voting posters here. Ours are very obnoxious.
ReplyDeleteThat's a very lovely way to remind people to vote!
ReplyDeleteAnd Congratulations Mar, on your first time voting as a Spanish citizen! BRAVA to you!
Thanks for your visit, my dear Mar, and your lovely words to me!

Congratulations on being able to vote!
I almost couldn't see the Vote Manolo sign. But I eventually did. Like your background.
ReplyDeleteThat is very creative for a reminder to vote.
ReplyDeleteYes nice and original way to invit people to vote! We voted sunday too! It was the moment to meet so many people in my little town! I met a friend I didn't see since school when we were 16 years old!
