Aftermath in the Tropics
Albertina Lopez, 78, mourns the loss of her home and belongings in Bump Sirpi, Nicaragua, but rejoices that no one was hurt. When Hurricane Felix threatened her home, she gathered the 14 children in her care underneath and as it began to fall she led them, one tied to the other, to the remains of a her fallen church where they took refuge in the debris during the remainder of the storm.
