San Pedro, Belize 2009
Mom and I stayed on Ambergris Caye for a week. We kept walking past a very tall concrete retaining wall on our way down the beach every day. On the last day I decided to see what was on the other side of that wall. **Poof**a cemetery.
It was very small and crowded and clearly on a very expensive plot of land sandwiched between two resorts. The ground is mostly sand and the tombs very elaborated decorated with enormous amounts of tropical plants and bright silk flowers. Although small it was quite elaborate. Since we were there right after Christmas it was apparent from the burned out candles and flowers that the tombs had seen a lot of visitors.
If you look through the small square windows in the concrete wall you can see the ocean in some of the shots.
