It was rather a grey day today, so the pictures above are "borrowed" and these below are the ones that I took.
As you can see from the markings, there is no confusing where you walk and where you ride.

At the Eck (corner)
This lovely little bridge was built in only 10 months in 2006 and stands at the "corner" of three countries - Germany, Switzerland and France. The "Three Countries Bridge" connects the twin towns, Weil am Rhein on the German and Huningue on the French side of the Rhine. With a span of approximately 230 m and a total length of 248 m, it is the longest cantilever pedestrian and cycle bridge in the world.

I think I saw that bridge being installed on an airport run! lots of people were standing on the road watching, and the cars were driving really slowly so they could watch :)
Cool! I've never been there - maybe I should try to go when I visit... So how long is Howard gone for?
