This bridge reminds me of a book I read once.. or maybe seven times.

That is beautiful...and a lot more populated than you'd think!

The Darkside of the Moon (England really)
Thank you, Nameless! That's a pretty cool picture of the gate to Strawberry Field. What's beyond the gate? I would love to visit the U.K. Someday. I have a friend there, goes by the name of Mr. Nobody here, and he writes of the area in exquisite detail.
It used to be a salvation army children's home until it closed in 2005. They used to hold a garden party on the grounds every year which John Lennon would go to with his aunt. It's now a church. The gates there now are replicas replacing the originals in 2011.
