R.I.P.

In my walking tour I showed a picture of the view from the Cholera Cemetery. There are actually 4 different small cemeteries in Hope Town, all of which are close to the beach. My favorite one is at the south end of the settlement and overlooks the ocean.

It is a gorgeous view and I enjoy looking at the head stones, some of which date back to the mid-1800 era.




Many of the gravestones have been damaged by hurricanes, but there is a restoration project in the works.
What a great place to spend eternity...
