Sunblock

Summer came early this week. It was up to 35 degrees celcius and a bright sunny day. In China, it is considered beautiful for women to have pale skin. They sometimes take extreme measures to avoid getting any suntan. This women is covered head to ankle even though it is extremely hot. It must be very uncomfortable to ride a bike wearing all this.
