Yet another cup of coffee... at the Seto Ohashi Waterfront Pier Cafe

There, now it looks like good honest south Indian coffee, na?


And then, like a true Indian, you add some milk...



The Georgia Coffee... made from an instant seed grinding machine and decanter... instant expresso-like decoction...





The waterfront cafe... Notice that there are no waiters or employees hanging around the tables

The view from the waterfront cafe... one can see the Seto Ohashi Bridge from the coffee tables...

At the Seto Ohashi Waterfront Pier...

Posing in front of the Seto Ohashi Bridge and a testimonial yellow endemic granite memorial to the construction of the Bridge...

Posing to give you an idea of the size of the circular cable... the cable that I am holding on to, is also used to give support to the larger cable...

The details of the cable... I will get it translated later to provide information about the details provided here.



The closest that I could get to... the cable is actually made of nearly a million small cables within it... lending it exponentially a million times more strength...

A further close-up...


A close-up of the trans-section of the cable...


Mr. Fujiwara in front of the trans-section of the cables used to provide support to the Seto Ohashi Bridge... The entire circular trans-section is one cable... Notice the size...
