Possibly a quickie - They knew she was from the South before she even opened her mouth. | ||

Her actions gave her away? her appearance? a possession? someone else? something else? An odd guess: temperature relevant? | ||

The South = the former Confederate States of America? South America? Southern Hemisphere? "Lots of planets have a South"? Ok, technically the Doctor Who quote is "Lots of planets have a North", I *think*, but since you said South... | ||

The South = the former Confederate States of America? In this case, yes, but could be anywhere in the sun belt. South America? Southern Hemisphere? no "Lots of planets have a South"? Ok, technically the Doctor Who quote is "Lots of planets have a North", I *think*, but since you said South... It's on planet earth. Is she wearing something relevant? yes or yessish e.g. a sporting team's logo on a cap or jersey but not anything like this Is food relevant? No Is it relevant where this occurred? In the northern part of the US, specifically in Niagara Falls, NY. That may or may not help. | ||

over the top clothing for a cold climate? i.e. she was expecting it to be colder and/or wetter than it was in reality, and this was given away by something she was wearing/had with her? | ||

Was she wearing a coat? Raincoat? Did she expect the North to be cold and rainy all the time? Because she was used to the Southern temperatures? | ||

Was she dressed like one going to the South Pole, even though it was summer in NY? Did she said something relevant? Among the others who were dressed in T-shirts (let's say), was she wearing a heavy costume and still pretending that it is too cold? Is this a true story? The attempts at going over the Niagara falls relevant? Relevant when (over the course of the year) this happened? (i.e., in spring/summer/fall/winter)? Are there any other persons relevant? Did she do a blatant mistake (in the eyes of the persons present)? | ||

DOYD of heavy. HINT: One item of clothing was notably unseasonable.

They certainly thought she was a little odd! | ||

The notably unseasonable item of clothing, was it ...any sort of cap or hat? ...a scarf? ...gloves? ...winter boots? ...a blanket? Is it something that's unusual for the inhibitants of the region to wear even it it had been winter there? Ski goggles perhaps? | ||

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The notably unseasonable item of clothing, was it ...any sort of cap or hat? don't think you would call it that, but OTRT ...a scarf? OTRT ...gloves? ...winter boots? ...a blanket? no to these; OTWT Is it something that's unusual for the inhibitants of the region to wear even it it had been winter there? I think that at least some of them would wear this in the wintertime there. Ski goggles perhaps? no | ||

Like a hat and a scarf...must be ear muffs? Or those wide headbands that cover the ears? | ||

One of those hood-like thingies that you can pull over your head so that it keeps warm your neck, ears, head and partly cheeks at the same time (dunno what they're called)? | ||

Yesis it a balaclava? no One of those hood-like thingies that you can pull over your head so that it keeps warm your neck, ears, head and partly cheeks at the same time (dunno what they're called)? a baclava, maybe? I didn't know either, until Andy suggested it. No, not one of them. Like a hat and a scarf...must be ear muffs? yes! Or those wide headbands that cover the ears? So why was she wearing earmuffs in the summertime? It wasn't *just* because she was feeling cold. | ||

Was she showing them off? Or hiding something? something she was ashamed off? Her iProduct earbuds? In order to avoid attracting muggers? (There was a news story about this some time ago, including people who thought it was worth the risk in order to show off) Would a headband work? | ||

Summer and winter in the Southern and Northern hemispheres are reversed. Did she think this applied to the Northern and Southern US? | ||

Summer and winter in the Southern and Northern hemispheres are reversed. Did she think this applied to the Northern and Southern US? No. She is not a blonde, and not dumb. There is a very good and logical reason for her to wear earmuffs, and it has to do with where she is. | ||

Can you answer mine? Would anyone else there benefit from earmuffs? Is the weather relevant (except that it's too hot to warrant earmuffs)? | ||

Can you answer mine? Oops, overlooked them somehow! Would anyone else there benefit from earmuffs? Some of them might. Is the weather relevant (except that it's too hot to warrant earmuffs)? Microclimate might be relevant. Are she protecting her ears?YES If so:from cold? Wind?Partly this; no or n.r. to the rest. Dust? Insects? Noise? Sun? Did she have them pierced recently? Or is there something wrong with them? Yessish; she gets earaches easily. Close enough for a ************SPOILER*************** She is subject to frequent earaches, and knew that the wind and spray at the falls would most likely trigger one. Everyone else must have thought she was just a hothouse flower! Nice job, Galfisk. As I said before, you really know what winter is! Sorry for missing your post. |
