    This was my husband. So many thanks to all of my fellow pilgrims who stopped to help and to pray and to translate for me. He was doing what he loved. Thank you for the news article link.

    I always hand washed my clothes on the VF. Indeed I have always hand washed on any of the Caminos I have walked. I do not wear "technical". I have had no problems. Taking a drying line is a good idea. I generally use the same soap for my clothes...

    I ended up using laundromats a few times between Lucca and Rome. Even when there was a washing area, the drying area would often be a rack near an open window, but not exposed to the sun. I never had a host offer to wash clothes for me.

    You can see Victor walks alongside us all the way up, so no need to know how to ride. He's right there all along. It was very nice to just enjoy the view for that hour or two.

    This is a generous group and wonderful resource. And they made my start in Canterbury, then on across France, a smooth walk with all the tips and postings from their group. Money well spent to support them and use their knowledge base.
