Getting a drink.

Like most other developing countries, most of the water in Ghana is not drinkable. (That is potable in snooty parlance.) On our trip to Israel we bought our bottled water from the tour bus drivers. I always wondered that it cost two dollars when we bought it from the bus drivers in Israel but only one when we bought it from the driver in Jordan. Here we have it supplied by the Church. When we were in temporary housing we had a giant bottle and a water dispenser in our room. After the Fitzgerald’s left and we moved to our permanent abode the water system was more advanced. It was “triple filtered” so we can get our drinking water from a little tap in the sink next to the larger one from which we get the dish washing water. We have now been here for most of a month enjoying the safety and peace of mind which comes with triple filtered water.
