I know you have all been waiting breathlessly for this week’s edition of my Friday Funday CNN Travel Quiz. (ha ha) Well here it is.  The topic is bridges.

The quiz is quick – only 10 questions.  But it really tests our knowledge of bridges all over the globe.  Of course this quiz is just for fun and it expands our knowledge.  The only rules are don’t get the answers from Google or CNN but asking friends is okay.

I am taking the quiz and reporting my score in parentheses after each question. √ means I got it right. X means I missed it.  Multiple guess choice questions show a percentage.

You can answer in the comments (preferred) or take the quiz in your head.  I will post the answers tomorrow at about 17:00 EDT.

I’m sure I won’t do great on this quiz but that means I will learn a lot.   Good luck!
