I have been to the gravesites of the King and Queen of the Gypsies.

Read about it here.

And here.

Here's a view.

And here's the King.

And everyone brings trinkets and orange sodas to the Queen.

And here's a closeup of people's offerings (including mine) trying to gain her favor.

The photo lying on the grave is wonderful (and must be the Queen), and it's amazing that someone hasn't stolen it yet. It was a bit weathered but probably left there fairly recently. Who would TOUCH this? Also, Best Buy cards, Mardi Gras beads, a pencil, and some strange paper glove with fringe.

If you leave the Queen a gift she is supposed to come to you in your dreams and tell you how to deal with a problem.
