After about 50 minutes ride of the coach from Hotel Tuscany Inn we reached parking area reserved for tourist coaches. Regular shuttles ply between this coach terminal and the shuttle stop near the leaning tower. Apparently coaches are not permitted in town . I would not know what happens to tourists coming in cars !!
I had heard about the car wash and even sat through one wash when we had visited Bhupen in Louisville.But at this terminal I saw a Coach wash for the first time . It was there may be because large numbers of coaches made it economically viable !. Of course a car was was also around.
Large brushes rotate at high speed. Soap and water sprayed .The brush mounting moves forward & back.Horizontal brush moves up and down . Front and back wind shields are cleaned by both Vertical as well as Horizontal brush. Vertical brushes clean sides and horizontal brush cleans the roof as the brush mounting moves back and forth. The coach comes out sparking clean . Of course I did not hang around to see the whole process . I had a group to catch :-).
Caught up with the group and then the group caught the shuttle :-
