Jesse, when I was in Greece I wore skirts that fell about three inches below my knees for church visits. I had no problems going into churches. I wasn't around any mosques, though, so I don't know if requirements there are different.

There were also women going into churches in shorts, but I was in pretty tourist-heavy areas. The people running the churches may have been resigned to it.

OK, I'll have to get some pants then. Man, I hate buying pants!

I'm not sure if I really have skirts that long that I'd want to sightsee in, anyway. I think my casual skirts tend to be right at the bottom of my knees.

the guazey Indian skirts were my friends.

Wow, David Cameron is doing everything he can to lose an election that should have been a shoo-in: [link]

I know I've posted here before about my nephews and brother being booted out of the Vatican tour because they were wearing shorts, even though it was during that exceedingly hot summer of 2003.

They wouldn't be long enough on me, would they?

the ones I have drag the ground unless I roll them up.

You can get any number of travel-friendly skirts in a longer length, Jesse.

Have you all seen the NYT coverage of the changing ridership on the subway? I like the interactive map. [link]

But she's an amazon and you are wee, msbelle!

So, maybe...

I'd just rather not buy something I'll only wear on this trip, and I don't think I'd wear a skirt that long. I am confident I can find some appropriately-inseamed lightweight pants before June!
