Gah-San

Today (April 11) was Gah-san or Chinese cemetery celebration of the ancestors (http://www.cbajamaica.com/chinese_cemetery). Its when the Chinese community in Jamaica goes to the Chinese Cemetery (yes.. its actually called the Chinese Cemetery) and pray to their ancestors, burn incense sticks and fake money (I guess so that dead could have something spend on in the afterlife). I attached a couple of pictures:
