So this is the standard Parisian drinking fountain. They can be found pretty much in every neighborhood, and they always have a ready and steady flowing stream of potable water. They look pretty cool. People just reach between the ladies and use their hands for sips, or just fill up their water bottles.I still haven't tried one yet, since I have a thing about drinking random street water. But then, I haven't seen anyone drop dead after drinking from one. And we've been assured numerous times, and by nuns, that it's totally safe to drink the tap water. I just keep thinking that some homeless french person is washing his feet in them at night or something, which is a stupid thought since they'd have to be really limber and do the splits to reach.
