That's really too bad what happened to your associate. It's also too bad you had to cut your visit short. I'm sure you and Luis would have had a very nice visit. That is quite the picture. What a shot. Talk about being at the right place. What makes the shot so good is the amount of living going on all around the solemn, still figure of death. Wow.
