Finland's new largest bridge
"Finland’s longest and tallest bridge, the Kruunuvuorensilta — or Crown Mountain Bridge — is designed only for walking, cycling and light rail. The new bridge in Helsinki is 1.2 kilometers long, its pylon rises 135 meters above the Baltic Sea, and it connects new urban developments with the city center, cutting the distance in half"

The story of a bridge on the Dobra River towards Karlovac County, in a place called Lipa
The story of a bridge on the Dobra River towards Karlovac County, in a place called Lipa. Namely, five girls lost their lives on December 26, 1916 in the swollen Dobra River, and the post includes a photo with a caption about it, with their names. It is a locally known tragedy from the village of Vodena Draga (a hamlet near Lipa). The story goes that the event was related to a crossing over the Dobra River at a time when the bridge was not yet completed. In winter torrents, the Dobra can be extremely dangerous — it rises suddenly and carries everything in its path, so the old people here say. It is interesting that the plaque connects the beginning of the construction of the bridge and the tragedy — which often means that this very event was probably one of the reasons or accelerations for the construction of a permanent bridge.
And next to that memorial is a bench where a couple left a sign of their love

I take your daily commute and raise you my daily commute
Up at 05:00, out the door by 05:30.
6.2 miles arrive at work for 07:20 in time for a shower, some breakfast and no guilt for the rest of the day about getting some exercise in.
6.2 mile walk back at the end of the day as well.

Who likes a bridge, who am I kidding. All of us do.
This was the bridge I landed on putting between the land and the oil rig that I planned on making for water.
Now then, what bridge should I try making next time I need one in satisfactory. Presumably something a bit less known as this one, could be small one, could be a big one. Though I think I can make it look more like it if it is a bigger one.
