Drinking water
I am not so picky with the water that I drink. I can drink from the well or directly from the faucet because that is what I’m used to. Not unless I have been warned that water coming from the faucet is not safe for drinking. My tummy is immune to that kind of water so why worry? Ace on the other hand adapted well to that so he’s also not picky with the kind of water we’re drinking. I’ve been drinking water directly from the faucet for so long and so I don’t find any reason why we’re going to buy those bottled water for our daily consumption. I know for sure Davao City’s water is one of the best so we keep on drinking from the faucet while the rest are buying mineral water. However, what worries me is the water pipes that’s been installed years ago and still being used to bring water to each water district’s concessionaire. With the source of the water, I don’t have an issue, but with the pipes, I am not sure if it’s still safe. But since we’re not getting sick due to the water coming from our faucet, guess it’s still safe to drink it. And if not, I would rather buy water filters I saw in one of the hardwares we’ve been frequenting. With the filter, I guess the water will retain its original taste unlike the mineral water (that lost the “sweet” taste of Davao’s water).

When we lived in Portland (the big city), I used to drink tap (faucet) water all the time. But now we live out in the boonies, and are on well water. I find the taste of it a bit “off”, so I buy bottled water for me. Joe and the kids don’t mind the taste of it, so they drink it out of the faucet (the well water comes out of the faucet).
