Peoples of all types

25 10 2007

One of the things I am loving about this experience is the mass diversity of sizes, shapes, and colors of people.

So, funny story. I was in the mall the other day (if you chat with me, you’ll know that’s about the only thing near my hotel … and that I’ve been there more times than I care to admit) and was in a women’s clothing shop. Lots of women in the mall wear head scarves — usually a reflection of their faith and their commitment to modesty, privacy, and morality. Well, this one (young, tall, trim) woman was covered up head to toe with a head scarf on — and carefully examining for purchase a chartreuse, lace thong.

Just struck me as ironic! I love how this place tries to find a balance between their Asian heritage and new western customs :-)
