8/4 Gloves and Slipper Socks

I am one step closer to being immersed in Vietnamese culture.  On my ride home from work, I could literally feel my skin sizzling.  The sunscreen I bought two days before seemed to be useless and was really expensive. So I pulled to the side of the road and motioned to a little old woman selling gloves.  I purchased a set of cream colored silky elbow length gloves and matching slipper socks for about $1.  I am now officially covered head to toe as I ride around Saigon.  Just four months ago, I looked out in disbelief and confusion at the masked masses.  Now, I so understand;).
