Indeed, this is the correct spelling for the historic town on Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia. Initially a bustling fishing and shipbuilding community, it was established by the French in 1713, seized by the British, returned to the French, and then permanently taken by the British in 1758. Such a remarkable history. The Fortress of Louisbourg was designated a national historic site in 1928 and, in 1961, Parks Canada initiated a reconstruction of the fort, guided by archaeological findings and historical documents.

Given the abundance of photographs, I opted to print most in a 2x3 inch format. They arranged neatly across two pages, leaving room for a few descriptive tags. I plan to share more pages from our maritime journey in the upcoming days and weeks. Although I've made significant progress, I'm pausing to reorganize my craft table and to focus on some pending card projects.
