The pair travel to Nassau on the one-year anniversary of Anna Nicole's death.

LARRY BIRKHEAD and his daughter DANNIELYNN journeyed to the Bahamas this week to visit ANNA NICOLE SMITH's final resting place one year after the star's untimely death.

ET's JANN CARL was exclusively with Larry and the 17-month-old as she made her first trip back to visit her mother and brother DANIEL's graves in Nassau.

In a multi-part interview starting Wednesday, February 6, Larry says the visit is difficult for him, but he arranged it for his daughter.

"It's tough," he tells Jann. "Even though she doesn't understand, it was important for us to come. One day I can tell her that we went to visit her mom."

When they arrived at the unmarked gravesites, Dannielynn placed a pink toy turtle on Anna Nicole's plot and said, "Mama."

Explaining why the graves of Anna Nicole and Daniel are without tombstones, Larry says, "A rough draft came back with a sketch of a picture I didn't care for. I could just hear her hitting me over the head saying, 'Why did you let that picture go down!?'" Larry reveals that the design of the headstone will be "so grand and big. It's going to encompass Daniel's stone too."

When asked how he feels about making the journey from Los Angeles to Nassau, Larry speaks candidly. "I don't like the fact that they're here, I never did," he reveals. "I know that Daniel didn't want to be here, and I know that his mother was only here because of what was going on between us with the paternity question. To me it feels really odd."

On whether or not he has considered moving the graves, he says, "I'm going to leave the decision to Dannielynn when she's older. It would probably be very hard, if not impossible, to take both of them and I definitely don't want to separate them."
