did not trust the faucet water at the hotel, he said, so he filled his reusable flask with ice from the hotel and poured bottled water over it. The hotel ice he trusted; the faucet water there, not so much.

lol, I can 100% say that ice was using the same water source as the faucet.

Am I the weird one that isn't really freaked out by drinking tap water?

I'm not freaked out by tap water in general, I just hate that it usually tastes like chlorine or whatever chemicals are added to prevent it from making me sick. I love water from the tap if it's from a well and tastes like water. All the tap water in Iceland tastes amazing, the water in Philly not so much.

Same. The water I grew up with was fantastic, but my area is pretty limey, so I have a water softener and a filter.

I don't mind drinking water from the tap, I just prefer it filtered. That said, I almost never use disposable bottles because I hate the pollution more than I dislike the taste of tap water.
