Proud Old Lady with Yellow Blanket - a photo on Flickriver

Proud Old Lady with Yellow Blanket

            As we were walking around Old San Juan, we decided to find a place to rest and cool down.  In one of the old buildings there was a Subway store and right out side, in the street, there was an elderly man looking through the trash for something to eat.  We entered the restaurant to buy him something to eat and after giving it to him we went back inside to enjoy the A/C and get some water.  It was then that we saw this old lady napping on the table by the rear door of the restaurant. I took my camera and took 2 or 3 shots.  After a while she moved and something she was carrying fell.  It was her cellular phone, I helped her retrieve it and we spoke.  I told her that we had bought her a sandwich but she quickly informed me that she had already had breakfast and that she was not homeless, she lived in the old city and to give the food to somebody that really needed it.
