Confederation bridge (2 pics)

[slleipnir]

Just thought I'd share these pics my mom got from a friend. It's the Confederation bridge..that connects PEI (where I live) to New Brunswick. Not sure how long it is, but I think it's one of the longer bridges..Anyway, it's longer then I like :P

Oh, it's 12.9 kilometers. Not sure how that compares to other bridges

Wow, that's wicked long! (8 miles - I just calculated it :p)

Pretty pics too. The reflections of the light in the water are cool.

Looks like we won;t be going to New Brunswick... my hubby has a major phobia of bridges! We'll go hours out of our way to avoid bridges half that size. :D

Georgeous images though.

Thats ok, that bridge just connects to PEI..which is an island, so you wouldn't have to worry about it unless you're coming here. I hate bridges too actually O_O this one isnt that bad cause it has high 'rails' or w/e. Cement blocks.. so you cant even see the water

I LOVE BRIDGES!! That's one long bridge! :D Gorgeous pictures too. :D

The Mackinac Bridge is 5 miles long.

Here's a great site with facts and figures:

Anyone know how long the bridge is that connects Florida to the Keys?

I'm on a roll now.. :D

This is the bridge I cross over the most when going to Canada.
Blue Water Bridge (http://www.michigan.gov/mdot/0,1607,7-151-9618_11070-22062--,00.html)

The times I pick up my friend from Windsor, I'll use the tunnel instead of the Ambassador Bridge (http://www.ambassadorbridge.com/). It just seems faster.
