I thought you were talking about the pub in O'Connell Street!
Is the road bridge connecting Denmark and Sweden you are talking about? Or what does it connect or goes over?
It kind of helps...

Mr A, Denmark has about 400 islands apart from the Jutland peninsula. There are bridges connecting islands all over the place so a bit of more detail helps to give you the name. The main one that people would know about are the Øresund bridge (connects Denmark and Sweden - Copenhagen and Malmö-). The only connection I can see with the "Sk" is that Malmö is in the county of Malmöhus with is part of the Skåne province. Is this it? www.pbase.com/image/81419194 |

Jesus.
The big one.Its probably the Oresund bridge.Anyway,its a credit to you.It would have taken the Irish 30 years to build it and then it would have collapsed into the sea

a now thats bold.... we did build some nice bridges way back and they still in use today so dont be a brat . my fav is the bridge at shannon bridge, but i hate that the council came along and put lights on it now you have to wait for the green light it seems to take ages to go green. i just love it watching all the boats going up and down the shannon and then dock and off to killeens pub, shop, for a beer nothting like it on a warm day...........

April and Mr A are right though... But there is a bigger bridge in Denmark which is the second longest suspension bridge in the world, The Great Belt Bridge. It is impressive, not saying that because I'm a Dane but it really is.
People seem to forget sometimes that the architect of the Sidney Opera House was a Dane as well. We've more things than big dogs, good bacon, Lego and goalkeepers.. ;-)
