Coconuts (Salamar) When I lifted one, it was almost weightless http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoauk18/3442685652/sizes/l/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoauk18/3442685228/sizes/l/ Beautiful table lamps/Chimney http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoauk18/3441869263/sizes/l/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoauk18/3442683678/sizes/l/ Home Altar/family Chapel http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoauk18/3441868905/sizes/l/ Sitting room http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoauk18/3442683310/sizes/l/ Plus the walls have lovely original paitings/sceney but need touch up or restoration. Another item i like is the 'Old Gramaphone' in a rectangular wooden box. infact, I accidentdaly saw it as when I asked for piano (if any) I was shown gramaphone. Although I wanted to spend more time but quickly finished in 10 minutes. I have been to the house before 2-3 times as a kid. Some older ladies of the house were known to us.. Age, as told by the care-taker (who is like our family friend). (And I know, the house is one of the oldest in Goa and if it is about 400 years old then it must be as old as the village church). I guess the house is as old as Chandor house too. Strictly, no visitors allowed For safety and security reasons etc I am unable to give you more details..
