London Bridge

Last year my mum, dad and aunt came to visit us, so we thought a road trip was in order. We headed down east on Interstate 10 into Arizona and up to Lake Havasu on our way to the Grand Canyon. One of the attractions of Lake Havasu and to be honest there really isn't many in my opinion, is London Bridge. Well really it's a London Bridge facade made up of a concrete frame and stone blocks on the outside from the London Bridge that was replaced in 1968. The bridge was sold to Robert P.McCulloch, an American entrepreneur for just under $2.4 million, then every stone was numbered, dismantled and shipped to Arizona. Contrary to popular believe McCulloch was not sold London Bridge thinking he was getting Tower Bridge (the more famous of London's bridges). It was interesting to hear from my dad that he used to driver buses over this bridge before it was dismantled and moved.
