I love bridges. If I see a cool looking bridge, I want to cross it, especially if it goes somewhere that I'm not familiar with. Same with stairs outdoors. They feel like an adventure to me.

Steam locomotives. I still get giddy like a little kid when I get to see one in a museum. Real life is even better. Heck I'll go out of my way to see model trains if there's a steam engine somewhere in the display.

If you ever visit Hamburg, this place will blow your mind:

https://www.miniatur-wunderland.com/

I don't even have words to tell you how cool that place is. We went to an art exhibition in Hamburg, and kind of accidentally went to see that place too. Like, they have day/night cycle there. They have trains with little cameras on top of them so you can travel in them. They have model planes landing and they have cruise ships going in real water.

So damn cool.

Same. I'm loved them since I was a kid and I still love them to this day.
