Horrors - if you order tea in Europe you get a glass of hot water and a tea bag. There is no way you can make a drinkable cup of tea like that. In Switzerland in our hotel they had all sorts of teas in the room. I happily made us a much needed cup of tea and it was PINK!! I think it was rose petals or hibiscus flowers or some such strange thing! LOL My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

It's amazing to find out that steaming hot water is actually FREE in many places we have been to...( and adding our fav teabags ) we have a bit of home whilst away....mmmmm...doesn't get any better that this...LOL My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

A couple of mugs at lunchtime and about 3 mugs around 5 in the evening. I also drink several cups of coffee during the day too. This is a hot, dry (well except for the past week when we have had just about non-stop rain, lol) country and we need plenty of fluids. Don't trust the tap water even with a filter on it and object to buying bottled water. Vince if you don't drink tea what do you drink? Beth - I've never heard of Long Island tea - do tell me more!! lol Cathyml asked what I prefer to drink if not T? Well it seems to be C!! By that I mean most of my favorite drinks begin with C i.e. Coffee, Cider, Campari (neat), Coke (preferably with Bacardi), and the odd Chocolate. I can see a new thread coming about coffee soon, not from any High Street outlet is what I say. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
