A King Died

 One of the Iroij (traditional kings) died this past month. Jurelang Zedkeia had also served as President of the country and had been involved in many different aspects of the country's life.
Following a week of wakes and memorial services, the main road throughout the island was decorated to honor him. This road extends for 31 miles. The picture above is a shot down the street towards one end of the island and the road was decorated all the way to the other end to where the royal graves are.
