Yep, pity you won't get to see it once it's finished unless the old road is still usable. Might have a good view though if they don't build up the sides too much.

Hi Maple Leaf ..................... don't worry, the bridge is fine :unsure: & once you get to the other side you can walk around amongst the treetops. I took my friend who was visiting from the UK there in May & saw her loose control for the 1st time since I've known her :o ............... the photos at the other side of the bridge showing the aftermath of a storm & a bloody great tree falling on the bridge didn't help!! :lol:
I spose i will do it at least once..when the time comes..just wish i didnt' have to come back across it.:unsure:.if i can't handle it....:eek::eek: but if i know you are all doing it and surviving that realy helps...:thumbsup::thumbsup: |
