MEXICO-EL SALVADOR-MARSHALLS-CASTAWAY-ALVARENGA

Salvadorean castaway Jose Salvador Alvarenga (L) embraces Roselia Diaz (R), mother of dead castaway Ezequiel Cordoba, upon his arrival in El Fortin, Chiapas state, Mexico on March 15, 2014. Alvarenga, the Salvadoran castaway who says he survived more than a year at sea, flew to Mexico Friday to visit the family of a man who died during the odyssey across the Pacific. Alvarenga washed ashore in the Marshall Islands on January 30, telling reporters he survived the 12,500-kilometer voyage in a seven-meter fiberglass boat after leaving Mexico's Pacific coast 13 months earlier.
