Do you get wine in cardboard boxes in the States (I can't remember as we 
didn't buy any last year). If so and especially if they have the rubber 
"lift-up" taps, use them, they carry 3 or 4 litres. To fill, pull the 
rubber tap off with your teeth (I find it easier that way). Make up nylon 
bags to put them in, to save them from abrasion. As they will conform to 
any shape they are the most effective way of carrying water, will fit where 
nothing else will.
