The paper I bought here before Christmas was really nice. It was thick, had the lines on the "wrong" side for cutting, and said "Made in USA." 24 sheets for 50 rupees. |

Henna shop |

The green stuff is henna, Sara bought some to do the girls' hands. Many Indian's put this in their hair to prevent hair loss, it turns their hair orange. |

Change please? |
|
Several "vendors" stopped us asking us if we could change their US dollars (given by tourists) for rupees. We were swarmed, in fact, but I was glad to be able to help a few. And it was comforting to see a few US dollars. |
