Hawaii's Bridges: Coconut Island Bridge in Hilo Bay (2)

April 2001 (19.729 Degrees, -155.068 Degrees) Coconut Island Bridge
A slightly closer view of the Coconut Island Bridge. I wonder if the bridge was designed for the tsunami that frequently strike Hilo? Maybe that's why the girder sits in a slot in the pier walls. A more frequent danger are the coconuts falling from the palm trees.

  1. That is a mini landmark in Hawaii. It is nice to take a stroll there in the morning.
