Woman drank straight from a bottle.
This morning when I got on the train one woman drank straight from a bottle of mineral water and chatted animatedly with an other woman and occasionally looking out the window. I wondered what relationship would exist between them, if they would be coworkers or neighbors or maybe have a sentimental relationship As I have little time traveling on that train I thought maybe back to see them often. I believe in coincidences and also in the effort to build our own biographies. Throughout my life I have controlled my future and I have almost never been surprises. Something like Borges character which came as within the biography of Cervantes and managed to write El Quijote without having read it. The same has happened to my biography but biographies like mine have not written once but a million times In the last years my biography is ahead of me and my life is full of surprises. Now, for example, I had decided to write about female flower hazel but I remembered the trip this morning and I wrote this.

Three drinking containers: The bota.
The bota de vino is a container built with animal skin. Inside was waterproofed with pitch adhered to the skin hair. Today the botas carry within other waterproof container. The botas are to carry and drink wine without using glasses, especially in bullfighting. But the filmmaker Luis Buñuel had gin in a bota when traveling by plane. Gin said that he removed the fear of flying and hiding the bota wrapping it in a newspaper. Maybe it was a practical container, the bota, but not the best to enjoy a good wine.

Thee drinking containers: 2. The porrón.
The porrón, as the botijo has two holes and a reservoir, but is glass and is used for drinking wine or sangria, usually. The porrón, especially, are pretty. They seem a complicated wine decanter. Wine came slowly out of the porrón, so less amount of wine is drunk. Nor need glasses. When diners know not drink wine porrón falls outside the mouth and stain clothes. In that case, instead of washing glasses, we have to do laundry. I think it is little used the porrón, but it is a decorative object.

Three drinking containers: 1. The botijo. (Encore)
The botijo
Although the appearance of household refrigerators and insulated containers has lost prominence, the botijo was part of daily life in Spain until a few years ago. It is a container that not only serves to transport and store water for human consumption, is also capable of lowering the liquid temperature several degrees in a completely natural way,in dry and hot climates like most of Spain. Basically consists in through the porous wall of botijo the water evaporates using this energy takes the remaining water, thus lowering the temperature. This process is called evaporative cooling and is very similar to that used by the wind towers to cool buildings in central Iran. With botijos, as with porrones and botas de vino, you drink without touching with lips the container.This undoubtedly created a barrier to the transmission of certain diseases spread by oral contact

( Básicamente consiste en que a través de la pared porosa del botijo el agua se evapora utilizando para ello la energía que toma del resto del agua, descendiendo así la temperatura )

Singing in the rain. My first homework.
When it rains the streets are wet and puddles in the potholes and tree pits are formed. The moon is reflected in the water and also the streetlights. If someday walk in the dark through the wet streets do not stop get waterproof footwear and sing "Famous blue raincoat" I will go to the window to listen you..
