You might say that our small Christmas Travel Group to the Maya Yucatan of Mexico adopted him. He traveled alone, spoke Spanish very quietly to the resort waiters and staff, and when he spoke English he spoke slowly and precisely, taking great care to be correct. He carried no camera of his own, so we started to motion
him into our photos to make our shots more interesting we told him. And this was true. It was true also that we became increasingly curious about who he was. He never quite managed a smile but he accommodated us with a neutral expression.
