Paying for water



You don't care much for the price of water when what you use for washing and bathing was good enough for drinking and brushing your teeth too. But here in Dubai, we always have to pay for drinking water at the restaurants and certainly also at home. Masafi is one of the cheapest and honestly none of us can taste its difference from the much more pricey Evian or Perrier.

Unlike tap water back home, mineral water is always consistent. What is unwelcome about it is every few days I have to truck up a six-bottles pack of it up to the apartment.

By the way, the children drink for free mineral water from big dispensers at school.

Just as well, there are no new-water here.
