Crossing a bridge in Girona, Spain

- Iconic Tyne Bridge, viewed from the Millennium “Eye”
I joined Pinterest soon after it started, but I’m pleased to report I never really caught the bug. Life is simply too short. But I do receive weekly updates and from time to time find myself ensnared. Especially when it concerns one of my favourite subjects- bridges.
I’ve never visited the city of Berlin, but this random fact caught my attention. Can it possibly be true? Loving bridges as I do, the city has now moved significantly up my wish list. Just how long it would take me to count them, I don’t know. But I’d be game to find out. Wouldn’t you?
GoEuro promise rail, coach and air in just one search.

I’ll come and “friend” you on there, Debbie, but it’s a bit like Flickr for me. I started but never have the time to keep up. Posted some lovely Porto and Douro memories on Pin yesterday. That’s my quota for at least a year 🙂 Thanks, hon.

I do use Pinterest. I have over 9000 pins so far… I do it in spurts. It does suck a lot of your time though, so if you aren’t overly interested to get into it!
I would love to see all those bridges too! Sounds like it would be a fun time trying to count them all! 😉

I had no idea what was on mine, Elaine, so I thought I’d better look yesterday. I was horrified to find just a few random bits so I topped it up with Porto and Douro photos. Lovely trip down Memory Lane 🙂 It’s quite quick to do, but then your photos are out there for anyone to use, so I’m not sure if it’s a good thing or not!

Like you, I just can’t decide if it’s a good thing or not. I thought perhaps there were links to websites etc via the photos, but it seems that there aren’t.

Some people use it to promote their stuff Elaine. If you use the button at the bottom of your post it sort of does but I don’t like it much.

I’m not into other SM platforms, Tumblr has taken my interest for the way it shows photos, No more.
Anyway, your Tyne bridges photo gave me the chance to say that one of my mates from university designed that bridge, and both the Tyne and Sydney Harbour bring back so many memories for us.
Bridge to the past I suspect.
