Povodne!

Our Slovak vocabulary is improving, yesterday we learned the word for Detour (roads closed due to flooding), today Povodne - the Slovak word for floods.
Most of Slovakia and a large part of Poland and Hungary are flooded.
The nearest serious floods are at Nitra, just 70km from the Prievidza competition site.
During squad training we experienced similar conditions, maybe it was too realistic.

Today we'll check out the sights of Brno before heading to Prievidza tomorrow (if we can get there).
