Billboards of Haiti - Part I

Here's a random smattering billboards in Haiti that I found surprising, amusing, or otherwise caught my attention.  It also shows you what the roads are like.

Haitian actor/comedien Daniel Fils-Aimé (also known as Tonton Bicha) apparently enojoys Bakara rum!

Ti Malice (a children's story character) and his butter

"All that you need" Guarina saltines (bonbon sel)

Gingerbread Houses

Here are the pictures of the gingerbread houses I saw in Haiti while driving around the capital.  A couple were in Jacmel.  Time Magazine has a nice photo essay explaining these houses which were built in the late 1800s and tended to survive the earthquake.
