The Color of Money

 

India_3.23b 020.jpg

Tonight, Asha and Reggie and their mysterious well-traveled friend Bart showed us an Italian restaurant in a market area called Sundarnagar. The restaurant is called Boci, and I brought Jake from the hotel along to meet the crowd. Here's a stack of rupees, which looks like a lot of money, but only made a dent in the total bill. Indian currency is quite beautiful in its range of colors, I think, and I like how even small denominations are in the form of notes instead of coins for the most part. For example, ten rupees is approximately the equivalent of a U.S. quarter, but is still in paper form.
