Lunenburg is a port town on the South Shore of Nova Scotia, Canada designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Considered to be the best surviving planned British colonial town in North America, you can still see the tall ships moored off the port.
ps- thanks to my 365 friends for voting this one into TT :)

@casablanca Thanks for the "tap on the shoulder"! Peter, this is the town we lived in for "22 6-month summers" until we sold the house a couple of months ago! Ours was the purple house on the park in the center of the Heritage District by the "Orange tree lit up" behind the church on the right. It truly was a magical town with no end to the photo opportunities! I could write a sizable list of photographers from 365 who came to visit us over those years! And, BTW, your photo from across at the golf course road is magnificent!
Wonderful shot and favourite and thanks Louise & Ken @Weezilou for your additional personal story. I would love to have been one of the 365ers who was able to visit!
I was one of Louise’s @weezilou 365 visitors and Lunenburg became one of my favourite places for photography! The town is beautiful and the people are so friendly and welcoming! Happy times!
@Weezilou Sounds like it was all perfect timing, and I'm sure you'll be back again and again and I've already told my housemates that I want to go when you and Ken go! (I'll be just as happy as a visit to FV or the beach with you both.)
@peekysweets A shame we hadn't met sooner, though no need to rush the circumstances of our meeting! We loved welcoming friends to L'burg as it was a very special place, meant to be shared!
Anchored on our boat in that harbor in 2006. Loved every moment of our time there. Even pulled a drowning victim from the water while there - saved his life. I never did get a night picture. Yours is just gorgeous.
@Weezilou I was there on my boat in 2006 - probably told you that before - but need to see if I by chance have a picture of your house. Loved walking those streets.
@stownsend 4 years before you and I started posting on 365, but we were already settled in town! The house across from the children's playground in the park has been a shade of purple in all that time! What a pity that we never met back then!
Gorgeous shot
