There is major construction going on through the city of Warsaw as they are expanding the metro line. The current subway has one line that goes north and south covering a distance of about 17 kilometers. The new line that is being developed will go east and west and will cross underneath the Vistula River. This is quite a feat and is a very labor intesive project that will take a few years to complete
One of the stops that they are expanding for the new line is a few short blocks from our house. Imagine our surprise this week when we heard that the entire metro line had been shut down for hours at this particular stop.
Why you ask? Well, during their excavation the metro workers found an unexploded World War II bomb buried underground. Pretty crazy! Kinda cool...also a bit scary!
