Call 112 for a Fire

I felt like a schoolgirl yesterday, visiting the local fire station...

The building is entirely concrete, fireproof, new and enormous.

This is the ladder truck, a beautiful shiny red Mercedes.

I thought of my grandpa and two uncles who all are firemen in the states...I used to spent some time there in Minneapolis playing volleyball and eating spaghetti...
These are all containers that can be transported to a fire. I cannot imagine what is in them, but they are each for a special circumstance. For example, one is for a toxic spill, or a chemical fire that cannot be put out with water, another is for decontamination of any kind. One has showers for people to use...it's amazing what people have thought up.

Of course, they have a firepole. This is a no brainer.
