    Alternative: So if you're dying for a sip of water, just drink from one of the many small fountains around. Or, if you don't trust the good old Roman pipelines, you can go to a supermarket and even buy a little something to eat.

    This one is called Despar and is directly by the Pantheon on the way to Piazza Navona. They have anything a tourist's heart desires.
