water is life

One Sunday morning, Yohann and I went to the park across our apartment's complex to get our drinking water.  It was not so crowded anymore as it's late morning and as much as I'd like to go there early, it's still cold in the early morning and I would not risk Yohann getting cold.  During the winter, we haven't been here to get water but we buy instead.  I try to tell my self to save money and make the effort to do the 10-minute walk, not only I can save money but it is good exercise for me and and an energy buster for Yohann too.  Sadly (or not), laziness took over. 

So here we are now, patiently waiting for my turn to get water.  As I hold close my empty plastic water containers, I took a few pictures of the action.

       Old women filling their water containers.  Mostly, they have a trolley to carry all these bottles of water. 

Some bring bigger containers.  They would either have it latched on their bicycles or motorbikes. 

I have seen lots of joggers also who come with their cars, they would fill big containers up before or after they jog.

Owners of these containers bring their cars.  It could be that their building/s are quite far from this park or they are getting more than one refill.

One of the many things I like here in Korea is that the government provides better access to water.  This mineral water comes from the mountain and the government made water line for the residents to get water without having to go or hike the hills or mountains.  This way they enjoy what the nature provides and save at least $.90 for 2 liters/bottle.  Now if only other countries have this much water resources, there wont be people and animals dying of draught.  And if only other people make use of water wisely and conscientiously...  water is life after all.
