17 ---- Day 2 A few of Simone's photos











I really like the photo of the Millennium Bridge which was taken from The Tate Modern, where you have a beautiful view of St Paul's Cathedral.




London's Millennium Bridge, originally opened in June 2000, is the first pedestrian river crossing over the Thames in more than a century. It is a 325 metre steel bridge linking the City of London with the Tate Modern at Bankside.



But WHY IS IT CALLED "THE WOBBLY BRIDGE" or "THE WIBBLY-WOBBLY"? (The bridge had to close and didn't re-open until February 2002.)
WHO CAN GIVE US THE ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION?



SECOND QUESTION: What do you see in the third picture?




THIRD QUESTION: WHO ARE THOSE THREE WOMEN????
