Quick catch up as it's been hard to get wifi!

Friday night was very special in Cochin as we went to the very old Pardessi shul there. It was so beautiful with the light and candles. Fortunately there were ten men for a minyan, including our group, and lots of women. It was very special to daven in a shul that is no longer viable with only one old jewish lady, Sara Cohen, living nearby.

Saturday eve we watched a kathakali performance. We saw how their make up was skilfully painted on and were shown some of the gestures used . We then watched a dramatic play, performed to music.

We have now flown to. Delhi where we saw a couple of heritage monuments, and are now in Agra where we have now visited the majestic Taj Mahal. Wow! It really does live up to its reputation.
