Water

That is right, there is a difference in Germany in the water. I know everyone's thinking, who the hell cares about how the water tastes?

Well let me tell you, when you go to a restaurant in Germany and order water, they will bring you water that has bubbles in it. You swear it is not water because it is carbonated and taste closer to sprite then water. In Germany, when you want normal water you must ask for it special by saying mineral water or in German you can say ohne kohlensaure or without bubbles.

If you ask for mineral water, they think you are weird because in their opinion water is used only for bathing and is disgusting to drink without bubbles. When I drink water, I like to drink it pretty fast and just keep getting refills cause it's good for you and then I don't eat as much.

German water taste funny and with it being carbonated it's not easy to drink it fast. And the worst part is, in a restaurant one glass is around 3 euros or about $4.50, talk about a rip off.

This is one thing I do not miss at all about Germany. Back here in the United States, I get all the free water I can drink. $4.50 for a glass of water, that's robbery.
