Love Locks, like "Letter to Juliet"

The movie, "Letter to Juliet" takes place in the city of Verona, Italy. If you have seen the movie, or have known about the ritual visit to Juliet's balcony, you are familiar with the love postings posted at the entry of Juliet's balcony. I found of series and chains of love locks around the city. With names of couples written on the locks, they are often found on the bridges.

I have made it dozen of times and every time is a WOW factor. I vary the salt a bit depending who is coming over.
