London Bridge

From the famous song 'London bridge is falling down', we finally step foot on the legendary London Bridge. But before we go into the details of the little journey we had in the city of Lake Havasu, Arizona, where the London Bridge is located at now, let's have a brief history of how the famous bridge came to be.

In 1962, it was discovered that the London Bridge was "falling down," sinking into the Thames because it was not adequate for the increase in traffic. The City of London decided to put the 130-year old bridge up for auction, and construct a new one in its place. Robert P. McCulloch, founder of Lake Havasu City, AZ, submitted the winning bid for $2,460,000 in 1968. McCulloch spent another $7million to move the London Bridge to Lake Havasu City which took a total of three years. The bridge was shipped by boat 10,000 miles to Long Beach, California. From there, it was trucked to Lake Havasu City where it was stored in seven-acre fenced storage compound. Then the bridge was reconstructed. The reconstructed London Bridge was dedicated in Lake Havasu City on October 10, 1971 with many British and Arizona officials participating in this event that drew 50,000 spectators.

Indeed the London Bridge is one of the famous tourist spots not only in the state of Arizona, but in the United States of America. Coming from the famous nursery rhyme that I used to sing back in kindergarten, I couldn't actually envisage that I would be able to walk back and forth onto the bridge while gazing at the beautiful sights that the Lake Havasu city has to offer. Why don't you check some pictures out? :)
