A Surreal Moment
It must have been a huge event. After all, you don’t get to see the Canal Saint-Martin without any water every day. People were in awe of what they were seeing. It was strange to see the canal’s bottom. What was on the canal’s floor piqued their interest.
The Living Things In The Water
The workers had to drain the canal until there were only 50 centimeters of water left. They waded through the canal, looking for the items and living “things” that had made themselves at home there. The working crew caught around five tons of carp, trout, and bream! The fish were then relocated to better breeding grounds. They carefully weighed and identified the fish before relocating it. Even if the new location wasn’t ideal for them, it was still better than the alternative.
