Strains of mariachi music had filled the hot and humid air since Lewis the Lion had arrived in Mexico. He felt that it was a suitable send off when he heard some more just as he was departing from Cancun airport, bound for San Francisco in the United States of America. Lewis the Lion was then lucky enough to have his photo taken with these talented musicians.
