Not sure of the other bridge, but the Golden Gate according to National Geography, nothing is original anymore.
Parts are changed daily due to wear & tear, weather condition & exposure to sea.
San Francisco was one of the first places I visited when I was in the US.
Thanks for the memories. Love the pics.
Have a nice day, sweetie.
I LOVE those bridges! I was just there this past weekend after being gone for 13 years and I was SHOCKED to see the tolls!
love this bridge too!
I love the Golden Gate Bridge. Beautiful.
I always see Golden Gate bridge on TV especially in American movies. I love the view of the bridge and the surrounding area.You live in a very beautiful city and I am so proud that I have a blogger friend in San Francisco!
Holy high tolls! This puts the PA turnpike tolls into perspective.
The Golden Gate Bridge looks beautiful. That's a huge rise in tolls.
Gorgeous feat of engineering! 7 miles! Amazing.
The bridges are beautiful construction. I guess the toll rate should be deemed ok right after so many many years...
nice bridge..
Beautiful pictures. Thanks very much for sharing. I hope one day I get to visit it.
Love the picture of the Golden Gate Bridge. I only been over it once in my lifetime but I would love to visit again. Holy Smack with the tolls!!
I do not dilute the Listerine with any water. Buy a bottle and pour it into a spray bottle and spray. Any Listerine will do.

The Golden Gate is so famous that I went to see it when arrived in California..
Never heard of the latter, but left our mark on the Golden Gate Bridge during our honeymoon ;-)
I LOVE San Francisco and I am totally in love with their bridges. I use to have a sketched drawing of the design for the Golden Gate Bridge above my bed too.
Those prices...wow! They've really gone up so much since they first opened.
