This weekend was a visit to the Yambol cemetery to pay our respects by lighting candles and tidying up relative's graves. One grave I saw was well tended but I was more intrigued by the beer bottles used as vases fot the fresh flowers laid today.

Yambol is not the prettiest City in Bulgaria, but it does have a unique character which is now in the process of being captured by camera. What you see now in Yambol will be short lived in a world of change, especially with the EU strangling the heart and soul of Bulgaria's culture with directives and uniform regulations.

If the water freeze, they will not break.
ReplyDeleteLOL, that's pretty funny. Maybe the deceased loved beer :)
ReplyDeleteMartin, perhaps he fancied a tipple! More probably they make a cheap disposable vase I guess?
ReplyDeleteI sometimes use wine bottles, especially if they're a pretty color. :) They sure look better than the cheap white-painted clay pots that many flower shops use here.
ReplyDeleteI like the layout of the graves, like each one is a mini garden.
