As for the Sixth Street Bridge, it’s the longest and oldest truss-style bridge left in Michigan, and it’s really beautiful.

This year I had a really amazing vacation. I visited 11 towns/cities in a week. Of course the most beautiful was Duszniki-Zdroj. I'm totally in love with this spa town. I already miss Lower Silesia and its picturesque trails. Here are some snaps from Dzikowiec, Duszniki-Zdrój, Nowa Ruda, Tłumaczów (PL) and Broumov (CZ).

There is this very picturesque bridge in my city. Its steel and concrete construction gives some industrial and steampunk vibes. It crosses the Vistula river and runs next to a rail bridge.
