REI trip

The weather in Ghana is 90 degrees with thunderstorms and rain, which presents a unique problem of clothing -- what am I supposed to wear??

Margo and Dad took me to REI today to try on Techwear clothes, which I've never had before. My dad pulls out all of these cement gray cargo pants and maroon unisex button ups -- now that's sexy. Do I need to look butch to be comfortable?

Finally we settle on a hot pink rain jacket, teal button-up (it's cute with subtle ruffles), and gray techwear pants that actually aren't that bad.

My first foray into the REI outdoors clothes realm makes me realize that I really am going into a whole different world, starting with my clothes.
