I've travelled a lot and I can't remember taking pictures of bridges, except for the really ancient ones in Europe; the historically important, centuries-old bridges. Never have felt like taking a shot of a fifty year old American bridge.......Kick the bums out.

When I was in New York I took photos of the major bridges,

Keep in mind where these dudes were comming from, they were probably taking pictures of their bathroom

Then again you were raised in a country where the impossible was achieved. Most Iranians still live in mud huts and don't have indoor plumbing. They can't even conceive of a bridge 2 miles long.

If I were able to take a tour of a civilization that was 200 years advanced than mine, I would take all kinds of pictures, too.

They left out the part about these "tourists" taking pictures of the tunnel entrances.

I don't believe a word out of the Iranian mission and I have my doubts about anything that comes out of the US mission. AND, I will trust a local station over Reuters any day, even if it's ABC.

Just FYI, the Brooklyn Bridge is over 100 years old, and it's a beaut. *I* have taken many pictures of it, and I live here.

A friend of mine's cousin came to visit from Colombia. He was so amazed by seeing his first big-rig that he wanted hi picture taken with it. Apparently they don't have any in Colombia, since the roads won't support them.
