Soccer with a Basketball on a Field of Dirt

One of my favorite times in Mexico last November...the times that we played with the kids. When we played, the language barrier fell away. Play, laughter and fun are the universal languages.

Yeah Jose, we said and slapped him a high 5.

So telling what their school yard is like...just a patch of dirt with garbage on it. And a basketball for soccer ball(aka football).

But they were filled with joy and so were we getting to spend time playing with them!

A precious memory.
Fabulous photo of the good times that you had while you're there and a reminder of the hardships they endure.

A ball is a universal necessity for a game! Wouldn't like to fall over here though!

Yes, a good laugh, fun and play are good remedies for a lot of things. Joyous image!

The same the world over. I've got pics like that taken in central Africa decades ago... not as clear and sharp as this I admit!

@yrhenwr Isn't such a thing incredible to see? I enjoyed playing, too. I'd love to see your shot.

@alophoto Yes it is good to see. Mine are colour prints taken using Agfa film around 1970 when colours looked a bit wishy washy. Now they have all faded to green! I misplaced the negatives long ago but I've tried taking digital shots of the prints then severely editing them.. I don't think they are worth seeing, but if I can dig one out from the many cardboard boxes of old prints I'll have another go.
