Hi Tom,

The first Roman aqueducts that I saw were in Rome when I was 11 years old. (58 years ago). Also blew me away.

Pont de Gard is both the ruins of a bridge (pont) and the aqueduct. It is no longer in use and part of a national park if I remember correctly.

What was so amazing was that there was exactly one degree of incline from the Gard River to Nimes about 15 miles away! Even our engineer friend we were traveling with was awe struck.
