Drink up!

drinking_water_glass.jpgOkay, I forgot to mention something funny about the water situation here in Oslo, Norway. That my friend here thinks that there really is not any bacteria in the water at all, but its all a huge conspiracy theory to get people to buy the bottled water.

The reason he says is because the water in Norway is so amazing that everyone here brags about how its better than bottled water and the quality of the tap water here is so good that you would never think of buying bottled water ever.

He thinks that they needed to sell more water (the bottled kind, that is) so they created a “scare” to all of the inhabitants of the capital city and do their business.

I have to admit that by yesterday I saw more than one grocery store sold out completely of the bottled water. So, who knows? Was it all a big conspiracy?

I don’t know, but what I do know is that it is officially okay to drink the water again (thank goodness, I am so tired of boiling water!). Drink up!
