Bria's note: I am often unfamiliar with places on Ally's geography quizzes and love to look them up, especially in photos. It's one thing to read about the Beaufort Sea and quite another to see it, blue and filled with ice. Beautiful. Today I looked up La Citadelle Laferriere and was amazed. Here is a link from Travel Adventures, scroll down and see photos of the cannon and the roof structure. Or, for a short history lesson, read the description on the Unesco site.
