bring your nalgene for the wine

[wisdom's aspirant]

I love my Camelback. I plan to have one with me as I walk the Camino. You
can walk along and sip as you wish without stopping to get a bottle out.
They come in all sizes.
Of course, most of my hiking is desert experience so a camelback may not be
so useful in a less arid climate.
