I crossed the Millennium Bridge (though I didn’t know its name while crossing) after roaming around the St. Paul’s Cathedral area. In the background one can see the Tate Modern (at that time I didn’t know that the entry is free). And as I was reading these lines again, I can see what a well researched traveler I am!
Anyway, it was later on Sunday when I took the cruise on Thames (I like to think of it as a boat ride rather than a cruise) that I came to know that this is the Millennium Bridge. The excellent commentary we had on the boat, we were told “this is the Wibbly Wobbly Bridge, also known as the Millennium Bridge. As soon as it opened it vibrated so bad that it had to be closed down, so we like to call it the Wibbly Wobbly Bridge.”
Did the bridge appear to wobble while you were crossing it?:D
is it same bridge which can be opened and/or raised to let big ships pass under it ?
I love stories..of any kind..adds more flavour to the journey lakshmi
Sidhu, no not any longer :)Nilesh, a Google search shows it is the Tower Bridge that lets ships pass.Backpakker, I too like telling and reading the stories, see even my blog title says ‘tales.’
