Local singer-songwriter Trish Lester sings “Bésame Mucho” — often translated to “Kiss Me Much” — a 1940 song by Mexican songwriter Consuelo Velázquez, at the Taste of Cinco de Mayo in Old Town Newhall on Thursday.

Gabrielle Salazar, 5, of Canyon Country, holds hands with her mother, Patricia, and her sister Lexy, 10, as she strolls down Main Street in Newhall in a traditional Veracruz dress.
