When I was a little girl, we lived for a spell in a house belonging to my uncle ..In inclement weather , the only way to get to it was by foot over a one person at a time swinging bridge over the Elk river in Wva. My wonderful grandparents and aunt navigated that swinging bridge held with rope in order to bring us food and [presents ..How brave they were and city dwellers.Here are some terrifying bridges around the world .Imagine carrying boxes over these??
Colorado
Viet Nam
Myamar
Ours looked like this below but no handrails or ropes
Scary! I've been on a few bridges in my time that were frightening, but these look absolutely terrifying.
ReplyDeleteI feel a little queasy and wondered about your aunt and uncle crossing a bridge like that when they got old.
ReplyDeleteYeah...think I'll pass on those. I prefer something a bit more solid under my feet.
ReplyDeleteThey are very scary, but that wouldn't keep me off them. My dd, OTOH, is sitting here wincing just from the pictures.
