Bridges are a little difficult to build at the moment but if you click and drag from the light area into the dark area you will lay down a large length of bridge in one go.
I found 2 Apple Trees. Are the trees supposed to give more than 1 apple? Because when I chopped one twice, it only gave me 1 apple, meaning I could either use it in food and lose it, or replant it only to get 1 tree again.
