Can you guess what this is? Well I had to read about to figure it out. I've been doing a lot of research for our trip to Italy in June and this popped up in one of the websites I like to visit. My first guess was dog water, but nope....it's a drinking fountain called a Nasoni (cause of it's nose looking thing). The water is from a reservoir under Rome and runs miles and miles. There are 2,500 of these in Rome. Now about how it works....easy to fill your water bottle, but when you want a drink, there's a little hole on top of the "nose" so when you plug up the hole where the water is coming out with your finger, the water spurts out of the little hole on top just like a water fountain! cool huh!
