Somehow, the water must get from there to here (it’s about 5, 500 miles to the bay area). Luckily, the bottle is square so they can fit a lot of it on a ship, but it must be bottled for weeks and months before it arrives here. Why are we pillaging this island? It’s madness.

I love getting feedback and comments. Make my day by making a comment.
