That's good.


The water was quite warm... We stayed away from any moving
water, at least when I was there with kids. Part of the plan was to
catch some fish that seems to come out of the river during flooding,
but none was found this time.

During most floods, sewers overflow and it's not good to be in the
water, let alone catching potentially tainted fish. You might want to
rethink your plan next time, Ig.
