When the Danube Flooded

A couple weeks ago (maybe in June- not quite sure when it was), when the Danube flooded, one afternoon/evening we were walking around town. We were looking at how much the Danube had flooded, and at how they were trying to block off some things with bags of sand. Here are some pictures (that my mom took on her phone -- I think):

The white wall things are bags of sand that were put around the Subway:

 Some workers moving bags of sand:

More workers :)

In some places the water covered up an entire street, and in another it was coming up the steps to the street above the river. Thankfully, the water eventually went down, and as far as I know, nothing happened to anyone.

When we were walking around, we saw this written on top of one of the walls between the street and the drop to the lower street (near the river), and we thought it was funny so we took a picture of it :)
