The street boys playing at Big Lee's Beach Bar in Puerto Plata, D.R.

These boys are the shoeshine boys who walk the street, called the Malecon, all day ... to shine your shoes for money to eat on that day. They are fantastic boys, nice and polite. The often help me in the morning open my Beach Bar and Restaurant. It is a PLEASURE to watch them play on the fallen tree right next to my bar.
