The island abounds in cemeteries

All the cemeteries are by the road and presumably close to the homes of the families. Some interesting observations – they always have a lot of sand on top. My guide was not sure why. My best guess is to hold the flowers. Each has a lot of fresh, nice flowers. Also, instead of a tombstone with an epitaph, you will see pictures of the deceased and messages printed on cloth and hung up like banners!

How they stand all the strong storms, I will never know!
