I also bring along a clothes line and hang them to dry that night. Be sure to bring them in before morning to avoid the morning dew.

I remember once in Cremona, Italy, I had a balcony on my room. I went out there to hang up my clothes on the clothes line. I looked across the street and saw a local lady hanging her clothes. Then a bit later a local kid started screaming (maybe hers ). We would stop. I went out on the balcony and yelled "basta"! Which means enough! The kid shutup. I really felt a part of the neighborhood.

P.S. Basta seems to be an Italian mom's favorite word when talking to her kids.
