Melvin likes kids and kids like Melvin. He can get them to pose even if they don't want to at first.

And posed with her son (?) for a photo!

She picked out a cleaner apron to put on!

She wanted to remove her apron before being photographed!

Melvin saw this lady in Old Ocotepeque and wanted to talk to her and take her photo. Watch tomorrow to see what she had to do before her photo was taken.

I will bet that most of you have not seen one of these for a while. They used to be quite common but pop-top cans and twist of caps have done away with the need for them. This was on the door of my hotel room in September. Many young people have likely never seen one!

The Pan American highway flooded from the recent rains. The highway from San Salvador to La Palma remains open and Jose reports that La Palma did not suffer much. There is damage to the highway between the airport and San Salvador, but that is expected to be repaired by the time of our trip in December.
