タワーブリッジ (Tower Bridge)

September 25, 2015

皆さんこんにちは！今日はロンドンで一番好きなブリッジを紹介します: タワーブリッジ。そのブリッジは凄く綺麗だと思います。特に青い色が好きです。 1952年バスがタワーブリッジを渡ろうとしたが、ブリッジが開け始めました。バスの運転手さんはもう戻れないと気付いて、バスのスピードを上がって、他の側にジャンプしました！映画見たいでしょう。幸いに皆んなが少しのけがあっても、安全でした。私はまだタワーブリッジを開けたまま見たことないですが、写真で見たらすごいだと思います。ちなみに、そのバスの番号は78でした。タワーブリッジを渡ると、タワーオブロンドンがそこにあります。
