Does A Straw Hat Count as a Sun Hat for a Camping Trip?

[debka_notion]

Suggested packing lists seem to speak a language of their own. A sun hat- does my straw hat count? Or do I need to get one of those horrors that look horrid on me and have much less effective brims- but which can be bent/folded? I'm presuming laundry bag can translate to "extra pillow-case". Do "sturdy walking/hiking shoes" translate to sneakers that held up through gym class for several years? Or do they mean regular shoes with reasonable support?
