We were in Bad Soden am Taunus at the weekend, an officially recognised health resort. There 11 mineral springs in the town with various benefits to health, some to be taken internatlly (i.e. drunk) others externally (you can dunk your noggin or your arms in it).
We had a kind of scavenger hunt: empty a beer bottle and collect the waters of various springs (one bottle each).
