One Tuesday morning, two sites, NC heat caution. I have one long shirt. Partner thinks we 'just go in shorts and buy a sarong'. 1:30am packing ethics.

Long shirt and knees covered from the start. Cave is a cave: modest, shoes off, no flash drama. Changing in a car park is how you give a show. A cheap wrap over shorts works if the wrap is actually opaque. I will not invent a separate foreigner costume.

We wore the same covered set for cave then rock. Fine. Sweaty, decent.
