PET Bottle Machine

At first glance, this looks like a drink machine.

It's actually a place to put PET (plastic drink) bottles. You have to take off the plastic cap and plastic from around the bottle. You put the bottle in the round hole. The other plastic goes in the horseshoe shaped hole. There are step stools in front of the machine so kids can climb up to put their bottlesin. Click on the picture to enlarge.

The drink machines were on the other side of this small sidewalk.

Hot and Cold Drink Machine

In the fall, there are hot and cold drinks in vending machines. Hot and cold drinks are sold until spring. See the red line on the bottom row? Those are the hot drinks. In the summer, there are only cold drinks in vending machines.
