Don't look down...or ahead...just close your eyes and drive.The bridge over Rio Changuinola is finally completed.  This bridge replaced the existing bridge that was originally built as a train trestle.  The old bridge used to transport both trains and cars with planks set in place for the car wheels to ride on! 

Approaching the bridge; you can see the new bridge being started on the top right. Construction on the bridge over Rio Changuinola June, 2008 Completed bridge over the Changuinola River
