 |  | Donau/Danube @ Wien/Vienna 2013 06 04(Photos & text courtesy of pas@Commentary
      The Danube runs in two channels here, with the Danube
      Island in between, so what you see in any one photo is only
      one channel or the other.Route of photographer: U6 to Handelskai, then upstream,
      (NW? ) over to the Donau- insel (and a bit
      beyond), back down on the island and bridge to
      Handelskai.

      ServersEverything is superficially calm, but I have never seen
      the Danube run so fast. It is normally quite sedate but there
      is real force in it at the moment. The bridge piers are
      almost like speedboat prows, as the water is up to the top of
      the broad part. What you see above water is only the last,
      smaller part. 549 is
      taken on the Island , looking over the main channel and shows
      the water level marker by the edge of the path, where the
      water is lapping over into the grass. There is not much of
      the scale left.The boats are stationary. |  |
