A funny thing happened on the road...

Time of past OR future Camino
2006 to date: Over 21 Caminos. See signature line
I forgot to tell about this.

My walking partner, who does not want to be identified, was VERY thirsty and as we walked into a town, there was a fountain... This person immediately took long draughts of water, at which point I said, "which side did you drink from?"

"Huh?" was the reply?

"Which side did you drink from? One side says NON potable!"

Well, needless to say, THAT was the side this person drank from.

What to do now?

We hit the nearest bar and followed the NON potable water with a hefty shot of whiskey.

I am happy to report there were no ill results from the non potable water!

Moral of the Story is READ before you drink!
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
Good Story... :-D
I am sure that the lack of illness was due to the whiskey... ;-)
Next time drink one for me..
