Water, water, everywhere...

In case you guys over in the States haven't heard, the Balkans are pretty much under water at the moment (although not being situated on any of the major rivers, we are A-OK here in Kragujevac). The Danube has reached record levels, and the flooding is destroying houses and farmland throughout the region. When I was returning from Budapest last Monday, there were times when the water was less than a foot from the tracks on either side of the train.

On a lighter note, I wanted to share this picture that I found on the BBC website of an intrepid traveler in Belgrade.
