Unfortunately, this year, Romania had a few floods and everybody had to suffer from this. From humans to animals, everybody have been affected by the climate changes. There were a few weeks when the rain seemed not to stop at all. The houses were inundated, the rivers went out from their usual flux...Even Dunarea River was affected by the rain; at a certain point, it was bigger than usual.
Despite all, Danube Delta is a marvelous place to visit.
