Magic Fountain

A friend recently went on a hike and discovered the Fuente de Irache (Babel Fish translation). It’s a fountain in Spain that has two spigots: one for water and one for wine! The wine apparently tasted like how one would expect from a fountain, but is very existence is really cool.

My translation of the sign: “Traveller! If you want to arrive in Santiago with strength and vitality, then drink this wine and smile with happiness. Fountain of Irache: Fountain of Wine”.

As you can see, the tap on the left is wine (”vino”) and the tap on the right is water “agua”. It seems like the perfect way to forget the pain of hiking.
