Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Love and tidiness is the name of this local bus in Haiti's capital; Port-au-Prince. The last part of the name is a rather pointed reminder to passengers but the first part is only a general expression of goodwill; or so one would hope. These truck-like buses or taxis seem to penetrate every corner of the mountainous country; despite the incredible potholes one hits anywhere outside the major cities.
