Thanks, bon. I don't really wear shorts, so wouldn't get those exact ones, but I hadn't thought of that kind of store.
I did a ton of research for our trip, and there's lots of great options out there for modest travel clothes. Speaking of, has anyone liked anything from Athleta? I was looking at their website over the weekend, and it was really weird. Like they didn't actually know anything about travel clothes or athletic wear. Like most of their stuff was 100% cotton!
Pier 1 has some very lightweight pashminas for $14 that would be very travel practical, and would easily double for arm and head coverage. They would fold up pretty small, and still keep you warm and pretty in a nice restaurant with AC, and could also be slung around your waist as a sarong.
Yeah, I have a ton of that kind of thing. Thanks!

Bat Tatt! That's nicely rendered.
Ooh, very nice!
He's still a little scabby, but lovely.
'Gay dog' refused entry to Adelaide restaurant
An Adelaide restaurant that refused a blind man entry because a waiter thought his guide dog was "gay" has been ordered to apologise and pay compensation.
Ian Jolly was told he could not take guide dog Nudge into the Thai Spice last May because a member of staff objected, The Sunday Mail reported.
The restaurant's owners said a misunderstanding had arisen between Jolly's female companion and a waiter who understood the woman "to be saying she wanted to bring a gay dog into the restaurant".
"The staff genuinely believed that Nudge was an ordinary pet dog which had been desexed to become a gay dog," the owners said in a statement to South Australia's Equal Opportunity Tribunal.
The tribunal on Friday ordered the restaurant to pay Jolly $1500 and offer him a written apology for discriminating against him on the grounds of disability.
The restaurant, which displays a "guide dogs welcome" sign, refused to comment to the newspaper and was unavailable to respond on Sunday.
When travelling through North Africa we didn't consider any sort of pants demure enough when demure was mandated. Our modest skirts were a few inches above the ankle. Basically I tried to dress like my Orthodox Jewish friends from high school.
Gay dog? Seriously? People are as dumb as rocks.
