A HIGHWAY OVER WATER
There is a highway in Louisiana that you can ride on for 24 miles (39
kilometers) and see nothing but water on both sides. It goes right
across the middle of Lake Pontchartrain, the largest lake in Louisiana.
Called the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway, it is the longest overwater
highway in the world. The state of Louisiana built the causeway so that
people would not have to drive all the way around this big lake.
