The leaning gravestone

A concrete cross
If you never caught the first post in the series of photos taken at Stellenbosch cemetery – click here to see what the photos are all about.

Most of the gravestones in this graveyard have started leaning over a little due to soil erosion and the natural movement of earth. These are in stark contrast to the photos I've seen of the impeccably neat and well-maintained US defense force cemeteries.

Isn't that a sad sight?
