    WOW! I've never been on the bridge and it gets old on me! So unfair. I wish i was there. It looks like it was A LOT of money to build that thing. The video was pretty boring though i like sound to my videos! If i was one of the first to cross ( witch i would not be) i would be really scared that the bridge might fall down while i'm on it, no one wants that to happen to them. I really really want to go to San Francisco my aunt lives there and there are trolleys! Trolley's are really fun to ride you go pretty fast When i was little i went on a trolley i think it was at Disney land or somewhere like that. It was fast for a trolley car!

      OH I almost forgot there was a decimal when they said the bridge was 1.7 miles long.

          AMAZING! I never knew that the golden bridge was 75 years old. I also like that the bridge is going to have fireworks. But the video was really boring. There was an annoying beep in the background. And it had no sound. Plus it was colorless. The article was great, the video was boring. iAdios!

            Wow thats a long bridge. I wonder how long it takes to build it. I wonder how long it takes to walk across it.

              WOW! It probably took a long time to make the bridge. OMG! I can't believe the first pedestrians to cross the bridge was on my birthday May 27!!! It sure did cost a lot.

                I learned that it was estimated at 100 Million dollars. And the idea was proposed in 1922 and was actually built in 1932. the idea was proposed by Joseph B. Strauss during the great depression. Also I learned that the bridge is 5 years old
