When Dad and I got off the ferry we went straight to Louisbourg National Historic site.

There were two seiges between the French and English. It’s a big part of history in Canada because the English won both battles, the French left and the British took over.

The village outside the fort had tons of houses made of easy to get materials because they where to be burnt to the ground during the seiges so the English army couldn't use them for shelter.

We went on the Time Travel tour. I recommend it! We got to see a man fire a musket and learned about life style of the colonists at that time. During that period they had every thing shipped to Canada from France. We met a black smith who was really nice and told us about how he made things with iron, how it works and how much fun it is. This is something I would like to try when I get home.
