FIVE DAYS IN THE LAKE DISTRICT
Water-to-Go bottles provide
safe refreshing water direct from the stream for Tony & Lyn in the
Lake District.
"Although not an ‘exotic’ destination the water
in the Lake District is very soft and myself and Lynn have had
unpleasant reactions to drinking tap water there. We have been
visiting The Lakes as a sixsome since 2007 and Lynn and I have had
to resort to drinking bottled water. Not only that but I do tend to
dehydrate very quickly resulting in headaches. This year however I
had an alternative solution, the Water –to – go bottle. Each morning
I was able to confidently fill the bottle from the stream which runs
past the hotel; sipping from it regularly on our many walks – no
headaches, even though the temperature was unseasonally high and the
water tasted good too - cool and fresh all day."
WATER-TO-GO GIVES PEACE OF MIND TO LONG-HAUL TRAVELLERS
Water-to-Go bottles meant bug-free drinking water for Adam and
his partner Jill during a trip to Panama in Central America.
"We were very aware that sickness from water could have ruined
this trip," said Adam. "Although the water was allegedly
safe to drink in Panama City, it tasted of chemicals and we weren’t
sure about it. Having Water-to-Go meant we could pack the bottles
with ice from our room, add tap water and have nice-tasting cold
water that we felt confident about drinking."
Starting in Panama City,
the intrepid couple travelled down the
Panama Canal and then moved on to Boquete in the mountain highlands,
staying on a coffee plantation near the border with Costa Rica. In
many places water supplies can be unreliable.
"The water was unsafe to drink in a number of the places we
visited, so our Water-to-Go bottles were invaluable," said Adam.
"The poor quality of the water, combined with temperatures in the
80s and high humidity, meant we could have struggled to stay safely
hydrated without them."
Driving across to the Caribbean coast, the couple then chilled out
on the island of Bocas Del Toro, returning to Panama City after a
few days so they could take some trips into the rainforest.
"Water-to-Go made a big difference to us on this trip,"
said Adam."Even when told the water was safe, we might have
reverted to bottled water, but instead we were able to rely on the
Water-to-Go bottle. It gave us complete peace of mind in avoiding
dangerous water-borne bugs."
