With her surfboard, a Katrina appeared on the coast at sunset. She was tired of so much fear and so much veneration. She needed to relax, away from the tequila, the mariachis and the hustle and bustle. Only the sun, the sea and the waves brought her peace that afternoon. I was looking for peace too. Fate made me not forget my camera and I was in the right place, at the perfect time to coincide with this amazing deity. With her colorful face she looked at me sometimes. She just smiled when she looked at me and then her gaze disappeared into the horizon. Were she looking for something beyond the sun? Or had she returned from the other side and already longed for the return? I will never know. She disappeared with the foam among the waves, but I kept the photos to remember her.
Con su tabla de surf, se apareció una Katrina en la costa al atardecer. Cansada estaba ella de tanto miedo y tanta veneración. Ella comprendió que necesitaba relajarse, lejos del tequila, los mariachis y el bullicio. Sólo el sol, el mar y las olas le traían paz aquella tarde. Yo buscaba la paz también. El destino hizo que no olvidara mi cámara y estuve en el lugar indicado, a la hora perfecta para coincidir con esta deidad popular. Con si colorida faz me miraba a veces. Sólo sonreía al mirarme y luego su mirada se perdía en el horizonte. Buscaba algo más allá del sol? O había regresado del otro lado y ya añoraba el retorno? Nunca lo sabré. Desapareció con la espuma y las olas, pero me quedé con las fotos para recordarla.
