Pushin' Up the Daisies

Just a visual reminder to everyone that at some point we will all end up "pushin' up some daisies," so we had all better be making the most of each day.
This cemetery on the Fakarava atoll was touted as being an "old" cemetery, but Sam and I were a bit confused as we saw no old gravestones. Most were from within the past 5 years or so. So where did all the old gravesites go? We found one older mausoleum-type structure, but it was open and there was nothing in it. Kind of creepy. Perhaps it is best not to have all of one's questions answered.
