Water fountains
As more and more of us get used to the idea of reducing plastic and therefore carrying around a reusable water bottle, I wonder how long this particular piece of confusion will last. Our friends in Europe, however, do look at us weirdly when we talk about water fountains around the school grounds.
They’re not really as common over there, which makes me wonder where they got their water from during the day: maybe a very friendly lunch lady. These water jets are just another aspect of American school life that people have seen in the movies and been surprised to find are actually real.
