AP photographer Dolores Ochoa took a tour of an abandoned prison in Ecuador bearing signs of its past. The walls are marked with words and colored murals, written and drawn over 139 years by prisoners ranging from chicken thieves to politicians.

The Calbuco volcano erupted again on Thursday, sending dark burst of ash and hot rock billowing into the air and prompting Chilean officials to order new evacuation of nearby residents. The eruptions at the Calbuco are the first in more than four decades. About 4,500 people have been evacuated since the Calbuco roared back to life on April 22, sending ash about 11 miles (18 kilometers) into the sky.
