#AquaTrover
Before the Ireland trip, i saw a nice picture of the Lough Tay on Trover and then added it to my bucket list. Thus, we had a chance to see this beauty. 
I hope it will lead to another discovery for someone else, too. (:

The bridge is meant to evoke the symbol of the harp (also the Guinness logo) which is the coat of arms of Ireland. The bridge is named for Irish writer Samuel Beckett and was officially opened to pedestrians in december 2009.
