Tangalle this morning with knees out — wrap at the door still ordinary or we skip because we packed none
Tangalle side, a damp morning, we did not pack a long wrap. Elder in the group is in shorts. Not trying to be the rude tourist. Trying not to invent a scene at the door. 26 Aug.

Borrow a wrap at the door if they offer one, or skip. Knees out is a no. Shoulders too. 26 Aug is not a reason to rewrite dress rules. A scarf from a stall is ordinary. Do not photograph inside. If you packed none, skip and walk the lake loop you already wanted.
We bought a cheap wrap two streets over, went in quietly. Fine. Camera stayed down.
Skip is also polite. Pride argues about heat and then posts a doorway photo.
Ask two locals. The first number about Tangalle dress is a test, not a fee I will invent.
