Towns And Roads

A few shots of buildings from villages in Dominica, a volcanic West Indian micro-nation. What I didn't manage to get a good shot of are the scores of little colored flags affixed to all manner of private property in all of the villages. The flags were colored to indicated support for various Prime Minister candidates in a surprise election to be held at the end of the week (a single small red flag is visible in the top right of the above picture). I've been told that people in other countries are actually interested in things like elections and soccer that don't hold the attention of Americans, but now I believe it--those things were everywhere!
