We may be preaching to the converted (especially well experienced and informed Ziners, which we seem to be).

As you may be aware we drive twice yearly to Spain, cold drinks are an essential part of our trip and I drink a LOT. We always buy bottles of mineral water pour an inch or so off, reseal, freeze and presto ice cold water to last a long time.

If you speak very nicely to the hotel enroute they will freeze a bottle ready for your trip the following morning.

Just something for you to think about.

Keep safe Linda & Geoff Wales (where it is VERY hot)!
