Carrick-a-Rede

The fisherman who first strung a bridge out to the little island where they stored their boats would never have imagined that some day people from around the world would queue up all summer long to check out their hare-brained scheme (the bridge itself has been rebuilt many times - this one may only date to 2008).

The bridge isn't terribly long, or even terribly high, compared to other well-known pedestrian suspension bridges (or even less well-known ones, like those flimsy things you see crossing raging rivers in pictures from Nepal and Peru), but the setting is spectacular. Especially when the sun comes out, which it did, despite some worries earlier in the morning.
