bridges

In the years 1889-1891 the city of Sofia replaced two of its old bridges with these two new bridges. One called the Lion's bridge the other the Eagle's bridge. They were build by Vaclav Prosek, his brother Jozef and his cousins Bohdan and Jiri, there may have been another cousin once removed but he did not get mentioned. As you can see of this river, that you or I could leap over it, we are not sure what Mark twain would have said about this river considering his comments about the Arno in Florence. But maybe it is not the size of the river that separates us that is important but the bridges that connect us. I loved this city and its people so I will not insult this river even in humor for as David Russell said..."the hardest thing in life is to know which bridges to cross and which to burn." These bridges in Sofia we will one day cross again.
