What to bring if you are coming to Lourdes:
You will find that for some of the liturgies and processions you are out in the sun for a considerable period of time; make sure you have a hat, clothing that will protect your arms, face, neck and shoulders, and a high-factor sun block. Carry a bottle of water with you at all times.
