Eastern Europe flooding

Hi folks,
I'm Sinaia in Romania right now as Eastern Europe has it's worst floods in over 100 years! I'm trying to get reliable info. on which roads are open to the south as I want to go to Bulgaria and then Turkey. There doesn't seem to be much concrete info. here and I can't find much on the web. Anyone know where I can get some good info? One local guy has advised me to go via Greece!
Matt

Flooding

Hi!

It is hardly to know which roads are closed, because the flooding area is increasing. Try to go trough the Ro-Bg border at Vama Veche, near the Black Sea, or at Giurgiu (Ro) - Ruse (Bg). All the lands near Danube are under water.
