We have been "off" water for a day and a half now... it is incredibly humbling to see how the lack of water doesn't challenge Boca Chica like it would the US.

I was so excited this morning to hear the pumps going, only to find out that the people downstairs had turned on our reserve to wash their baby's diapers... praying that Loma & I didn't waste too much water by showering!
Flushing toilets manually and using endless jugs of water is tiresome but a true reminder of how LUCKY we are to have endless, drinkable, and safe water coming out of several faucets in our homes.
