Nancy Merrill Photography is hosting a photo challenge:
The theme this week is Bridges
IN A NEW POST CREATED FOR THIS CHALLENGE, SHARE A PHOTO OR TWO (OR THREE…) OF BRIDGES.
I inherited hundreds of my grandfather’s color slides.
Many of the slides were taken at family events, but many were from his trips to Europe, India and throughout the USA. He documented everything. Business trips. Personal adventures. With 8mm home movies as well. He was an ultra tourist. And thoroughly enjoyed travel. By air. By train. By car.
A few years ago I looked through all of his slides, but was dismayed that most were not labeled.
These are “Mystery Bridges” from the 1940’s (or very early 1950’s) Europe.
If anyone out there in blogging land knows where these photos were taken, please feel free to comment! I am very curious.
Look familiar?



Nice bridges…and none that I’ve ever seen before.

The top shot is in Luzerne, Switzerland. I vaguely recognized it from a visit there and looked up the hotel name and it checked out. It was the swans that did it for me. 🙂

Wow! Thank You! He did go to Switzerland so that makes perfect sense. One mystery solved 🙂

I love a good mystery. Too bad there aren’t more clues in the other two. 🙂

I love a mystery, but other than Marie pointing out the Luzerne bridge, I have not idea! Wonderful photos. Thanks for joining the challenge!
