An After-school Race in Belize

This is one of my all time-favorite pictures. We were sitting down for a quick lunch in a small town in Belize. This was quite a late lunch, sometime around 3. Around this time the local school was letting the kids out and they happened to be walking right by our restaurant. Mom told me to get out the camera and take some pictures since I was working on putting an album together documenting children around the world. As this trio of girls was crossing the street they decided to have an impromptu race. Luckily, I got a quick snapshot of them as they were speeding by.
