half a bubble off plumb
For Sofiah and her classmates, the journey to school just got a whole lot harder. The Indonesian schoolgirl lives on one side of the Ciberang River but her school in the village of Sanghiang Tanjung is on the other - and the river has been flooding. On Monday, the rising waters broke a pillar supporting a suspension bridge that crosses it, the head of the village told Reuters. Faced with an extra 30 minutes’ walk to cross via an alternate bridge, Sofiah and her friends have chosen to undertake the precarious crossing of the collapsed bridge instead.
