It reminded my of regular cemetery visits on this day throughout my childhood in Austria, sometimes to several cemeteries in sequence, since deceased relatives were not all buried in the same place. There was also the anxiety, even rivalry to make the family tomb(s) look good on that day...

Now that I live far away I am rather glad to escape the custom.  I still like to visit cemeteries on other occasions, though, just to look and enjoy the peace and quiet.
