those Port-au-Prince pics are really interesting!

and some great pics of the East Coast there. Saint John looks especially nice.

wow, great tour of places that aren't usually seen. i love seeing old, small towns. i had a nice drive on the highway through a few small towns old towns in northern Alabama instead of just flying by on the interstate to check out the old architecture. where's Rural King, he'd love this thread?

Thanks for letting me see all those great smaller Canadian cities again (you know I'm a sucker for smaller cities). I did miss a couple, so the repost was new for some of them. And I forgot about your trip to Haiti. Good stuff Smevo, look forward to 2007.

Thanks all. Most of the small towns were only posted in the Atlantic Provinces forum, so they'd be new to this forum.

@shappy- not positive how old the buildings are. They're restored (from nothing) to be a full scale replica of the original buildings that were there in the early to mid 1700's when the Fortress of Louisbourg was fully operational (mostly fighting against the British who built the Halifax Citadel around the same time). Unfortunately, I've never been good with history, so I can't remember the dates, just that it was the 1700's.
