A looking point

Yesterday, I wondered if Marie-Norma was looking out. Today, I feature tourists, looking out, taking a break from the long climb up the Citadelle.
The Citadelle Laferrière was built shortly after the war for Independence, between 1805 and 1820, under the direction of Henri Christophe, ruler of the north. It was intended as a fortress, to protect Haiti from future attacks from France. As a consequence, the views are amazing, but the seven mile trek is arduous. These music students seem to be in pretty good shape!
