Very old bridge, steel with a wood plank deck, recently restricted to one lane of traffic. A new one is to go in just upstream and this one will remain as a pedestrian walk way. The sprays of water coming from the one raft is from what is called a "dip stick", used to suck the water out of the rafts. Basically, they are a big syringe type thing and seldom used to remove water from the rafts as the rafts are "self bailers" and don't have water that stays in them. They do however, make great water guns. Attacks by renegade "touri" are common. Touri- pronounced, tur-eye. A term used for tourist, with affection of course... *S* |
