We had been lucky to escape the officerspatrolling the foreshore! Casey had caught her leg on one of the sharp, brokenedges of the bridge, as we jumped into the murky water!I could feeltiny trickles cascading down my back from my wet hair as we both sat together,our backs resting against what remained of the now rusted supports of the oldconcrete bridge. I can remember happierdays as a child running along the bridge, as clear blue water rushed beneath. I would chase my ball, as my parents watchedthe magicians' cast their magic's, entertaining the crowds with tricks of swirlingsmoke and spinning water. A completecontrast to the view today! As we sat together recovering from our ordeal, Icould see only sadness, as young children sifted through rubbish looking forwares to sell at a local market, to gain money desperately needed by theirfamilies."What'swrong?" Casey was looking at me with concern in her eyes."It'snothing, I was just remembering a time from my past. You're the one I should beworried about!"
