Lunenburg Historical Walk 2016
Old Town Lunenburg (UNESCO/NHK)
Lunenburg is the best surviving example of a planned British colonial settlement in North America. Established in 1753, it has retained its original layout and overall appearance, based on a rectangular grid pattern drawn up in the home country. The inhabitants have managed to safeguard the city's identity throughout the centuries by preserving the wooden architecture of the houses, some of which date from the 18th century.

Lunenburg - A Pretty Waterfront Town in Nova Scotia
Historic Lunenburg is one of Nova Scotias prettiest towns, laced with the flavor of its seafaring heritage. Its Old Town District was first established in 1753 and this thriving fishing and shipbuilding community includes preserved buildings, public spaces, and an eighteenth-century European grid layout. Dozens of historic buildings and homes dating back to 1760 are a reason why the city has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage site.

FROM WHEELCHAIR NOMAD DIARY... 2003 CC
We drove eleven kilometres to Lunenburg, a town founded in the 1753 as a planned British colonial settlement, with some churches and buildings dating back to the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Protestant dissidents from France and Germany were encouraged to migrate there to bolster numbers. Today, tourism, shipbuilding and fishing are the major industries. Some buildings were older and less spruced up than Mahone Bay, but the housing designs were even wilder, totally fascinating even to the untrained eye. Like Mahone Bay carpenters and painters were at work everywhere, preparing for tourist season. It was now 8.00 pm so we searched for accommodation.
In Lunenburg we stopped at the $75.00 Wheelhouse Motel. On the way we chatted with a family from Winnipeg, Manitoba. The dad told us, “We saw a TV programme on the tall ships of the world. My wife has signed on to crew on the Pictou Castle, three months for $66,000.00, which sails the world. It’s here in dry dock now after an eighteen month around the world sail. She will assist preparing the vessel now by painting, will be trained in the sailing skills she’ll need, and then will join the ship at the Vanuatu and sail for Rarotonga near Hawaii.” “Wow, what an exciting holiday,” I said.

200 year Old Haunted School In Lunenburg Nova Scotia | 2019
It has been a minute since I have been down to this neck of the woods. I head down to see some bright color houses of lunenburg nova scotia, boy oh boy what a beautiful day it was down there too. The sun was glistening off of the ocean, there was a slight salty sea breeze in the air where you could smell the salt from the ocean and the seaweed rolling over the gentle rising and falling waves. Seagulls cawed and people calmly shuffle abouts the waterfront.
I get to walk around the town of Lunenburg a little bit, checking out the sights and smells again, it has been almost 15 years since I have been down to this seaside fishing town, but it sure feels good to see everything again.
Check out my last video where I go down to a little spot by the ocean:
My laptop editing software stoped working and something else terrible happened:

Visita corta a Halifax y Lunenburg - CANADA
Halifax y Lunenburg, se encuentran en Nueva Escocia (Nova Scotia), en Canadá. Pasé unos días en la capital de la Nueva Escocia y un día de excursión a Lunenburg y Mahone Bay, en el otoño 2017.
Halifax es una ciudad que me encanta, donde se debe visitar la Citadel, la Galería de Arte y su Museo Maritimo, además de disfrutar de su excelente comida y la langosta.
