This morning I received an e-mail from a friend in Germany with an attachment that I wanted to share with everyone! It is the Millau Viaduct in France, part of the highway system that runs from north to south, connecting Paris to the Mediterranean and the area around Perpignan. Check out this link to see some more fantastic photos of this amazing bridge:

The bridge was opened in December of 2004 (after taking just over 3 years to construct) and is 270 meters high! Imagine driving along that and looking down! And as you can see from the photo, it is not exactly a short span either!!!
