The Oxford Version


Popularly called "The Bridge of Sighs", this bridge in Oxford England is actually the Hertford Bridge linking two sections of Hertford College.  It got it's nickname from the Bridge of Sighs in Venice but, it actually looks more like the Rialto Bridge in that city than the real Bridge of Sighs.

I'm actually in England right at the moment so I'm hoping to get some new photos of some of my favorite places like this spot.

Ah England, my England. You're a lucky lady, Sharon. And our daughter is vacationing in Key West right now. Meantime, I'm holding down Prescott Valley. :D

Terrific. I visited Oxford five or six years ago and enjoyed my visit immensely. Have fun!

I have no excuses! Oxford is only just down the road from where I live. Must go!!! Super photograph, Sharon.
