The person I’ve traveled back and forth to Boston-area with a few times now never goes on a long trip without getting at least a six-pack of bottled water.

On the one hand, I reuse plastic bottles again and again. I don’t often buy soda in bottles (or soda at all, these days), but when I do that bottle is reused over and over.

That said, I’ve read that reusing plastic bottles is supposed to be a bad thing, health-wise, because (allegedly) you can get germies into the bottle by refilling it at a tap.

However, that’s probably a myth created by the plastic bottle makers union.

IT IS ALL A CONSPIRACY!!

Showering there for a weekend leaves my hair and skin renewed. As a frequent guest of the Inn, I’d like to mention that the water there is wonderful.
