Default ac lines clogged

lately, whenever i use my ac which is hardly ever, i've been getting water in my passenger side floorboard. it's straight water with no coolant so it's not my heater core. a guy from work said that my ac condensation drain lines were clogged and it was overflowing. how do i get to these lines and is it just a matter of taking them off and blowing air through them? thanks.

ok, i looked under the hood, from under the car, and took the underside of the dash off of the passenger side and looked forever and couldn't find the drain line. if anybody can help me find them it would be very much appreciated.

It's not a hose, it's just a hole.

This is for a 95, but the 98-02 should be similar
