CHALLENGE #3: "ACQUA, NON VINO!"
(5 POINTS)
ITALIA AND VINO
GO TOGETHER LIKE A HORSE AND CARRIAGE!
MOST FOLKS DON’T HAVE ONE WITHOUT THE OTHER!
BUT WE ARE RACERS!
AND IT IS TIME TO HYDRATE WITH ACQUA!
THAT’S “WATER” SIGNORE E SIGNORI!
MADE UP OF 117 SMALL ISLANDS CONNECTED BY BRIDGES & CANALS
VENEZIA HAS MANY NICKNAMES:
CITY OF WATER, THE FLOATING CITY, THE CITY OF CANALS
WATER TAXIS ARE THE PRIMARY SOURCE OF TRANSPORTATION!
***TO EARN YOUR 5 POINTS***
YOU MUST DRINK AT LEAST 64 OUNCES
OF WATER PER DAY FOR AT LEAST
FIVE DAYS!
Nearly every square has a fountain where you can fill your water bottle, wash your hands, or bend over to get a drink from the spigot or faucet. (Often, you'll find a trough or pan for your dog above the drain.) Don't waste money on bottled water in Venice: the public tap water is safe, cold, and great-tasting!
BASIC RULES:
DAYS DO NOT HAVE TO BE CONSECUTIVE
WATER MAY BE FLAVORED WITH LEMON OR OTHER NATURAL FLAVORS
(NO ARTIFICIAL FLAVORING)
NO SUBSTITUTIONS ALLOWED
(IT IS ONLY 64 OUNCES, NOT HALF YOUR BODY WEIGHT!)
THE 5 POINTS FOR THIS CHALLENGE MAY NOT BE ENTERED UNTIL FRIDAY EVENING
SALUTI!
