It has been a week since Venezuela's horrific Delta Amacuro shipwreck and just when hopes were getting dim, five more survivors were found on a sandy strip of beach at Los Cocos, Venezuela. They had spent 19 hours on the high seas, clinging to a "tobo" or a can of cheese (which they planned to sell in Trinidad), before being washed up on the beach.
