I posted elsewhere, but think this deserves its own thread.

A visit to the Jewish Museum next to Casa Marina is also a worht while tirp. The history is facinating.

Thank you for posting. Great to have Luis Hess on film. He was a wonderful man. Anytime I walked down Pedro Clisante and he was sitting (in that same chair as in the video) in front of his house, I would stop and we would chat. He would share memories of then and now.

Very touching.
