Bob Kerry Pedestrian Bridge

A beautiful, modern pedestrian and bicycle bridge over the Missouri River between Omaha, Nebraska and Council Bluffs, Iowa. 
 
Pedestrian pathways and this bridge really accent the downtown riverfront of Omaha. On this Saturday afternoon, there was more bicycle and pedestrian traffic downtown than vehicle traffic.
 
I planned to visit the Lewis and Clark display in the visitor’s center of the National Park Service regional office, which is located in the middle of the bustling downtown area; but  THEY ARE CLOSED ON SATURDAY AND SUNDAY! Does that make any sense to you ?  This visitor center sits at the West end of the pedestrian bridge and there were hundreds of people walking past the front doors of the building.  We sure wouldn’t want any of them to wander in on the weekend. ‘Nuff said.
