Arais and Veerrappam were sitting exactly as you see them here, as I walked by with my camera, and thought it was the perfect photo. ย It was about 0830 am on a Sunday, and I assume this is their shop they are sitting in front of, getting ready to open. ย We had a brief chat with the help of a translator, and then they were gracious enough to pose for another photo, standing. ย They strike me as a very happy couple. Don’t they?
UPDATE Feb 23, 2014
I stopped by Verappam’s place this weekend to bring him a copy of the photos above. These are some photos of his reaction.
