In an attempt to ward off the evils of bacteria and all sorts of nasty problems like malaria (Michael, you do not get malaria from water), Jenneli and I drink bottled water. Obviously from the picture we go through a lot of bottled water. That's only a small portion of the bottles we have stacked up, there is a whole other closet full. I keep wanting to tie them all together in a raft and float it in the pond next to the house! We drink about 4-6 liters a day. Sealed mineral water costs about 20 rupees, which is about 50 cents. It's basically our biggest daily expense. I noticed that the 3 shops we buy water from have greatly expanded the ammount of water they stock. I'll have to tell them a few days before we leave that we will be gone and not able to buy all the bottled water they have for us.
