HIGHLIGHT OF THE VISIT TO FORT COCHIN IN FEBRUARY 2016

The above photo says it all. The nonagenarian Jewess, Sarah Jacob Cohen, enjoying the attention she receives on a daily basis, aided and assisted by dutiful Taha on her right. Looking on is the best historian of Fort Cochin and Jews of Malabar, Thoufeek.
Sharing an afternoon with the three of them was a thing of beauty.
I wish them well, as I am about to take off to Colombo on my way west
