Awaji Naruto Ohashi

OHASHI~01.jpg
This is the bridge that separates my island from the mainland. It's the longest suspension bridge in the world, nearly 4 kilometers long. It costs over 2500 yen to cross it in a "futsu-joyosha" (rougly means regular car in the sense of size, power, and purpose) one way. Yes, I pay this both ways whenever I go off the island.

Overpass on Awaji Highway

This is one of the footbridges that are built over the highway on my island. I've never seen anyone on them, and I think they demand closer investigation.

Desalination Towers

Actually, I have no idea what these towers are for, but they looked really neat against the sunset when I was driving home...
