This waterway takes a steep tumble just ahead.

Athabasca Falls is in canada right?

It is, but this not them. These are less of a tumble and much less remote, but still in the same Canadian province.
I really just need the name of the river, or the mountain/range above.

Alright now the game is more interesting. Waterfalls and whitewater is right up my alley.

Bow falls? Would love to kayak them someday!

Yes, Bow Falls are just ahead downstream, Mt Rundle above. I like looking at whitewater . Apparently they have been kayaked but:
"The rapids are typically considered very dangerous due to many unseen jagged rocks underneath it."
"A section of the falls has been dubbed "the coffin" by paddlers because of the likelihood of being trapped underwater by the vicious spinning water."
You would definitely have an audience of tourists and townsfolk at the base of the falls.

Thanks John!

Where in Norway am i here?


Clue: I'm at 735m.

Obviously an old photo - you look even younger than when we met.

That's true. I'm looking at some old photos.

I'm looking north towards a big fiord. Just name the town in view.

Or Just the Fiord?

[icefest]

Seeing as you are the only one who commented NNW, you've got the best guess. Your turn!

[north-north-west]

The only international shots I have are slides, and it would take forever to dig something out, scan it, etc.
Maybe just open it up to whoever has something to show.

What town in UK is this?

[GregR]

Smugglers Cove.

[Graham51]

This is 120 km west of there on the other coast.

[Graham51]

The small building on the left is well known to many.

[GregR]

Crikey Graham, I dunno, I've never been to Cornwall.

WAG: Trevaunance Cove St Agnes

[Graham51]

None of them. That little building is on TV, it’s Doc Martin’s surgery.
What town is that filmed in?

[GregR]

Good grief now I'll just guess wildly and say Port Isaac..

[Graham51]

Yes it’s Port Isaac. In Doc Martin it’s called Port Wenn.

[north-north-west]

Yes it’s Port Isaac. In Doc Martin it’s called Port Wenn.

Aaaaaarrrrrrgggghhhh!
I immediately thought the cove in Doc Martin but figured I had to be wrong ...

[GregR]

Thanks Graham,

Where am I in Asia in these before and after shots of the same Buddha.

I love what they have done with the place, shows you what a lick of paint and a bit of elbow grease can do. Is that you in the first picture Greg wearing the pith helmet?
I've no idea where this is.

[GregR]

no, I don't even own a pith helmet. But I'm 1/2 pithed at the minute having a Pad Thai.... oops I think that is a hint.

[GregR]

seems I've made it too hard.

I'll accept the name of the town in Thailand I'm wandering around - those Burmese invaders really knew how to pillage.

[Moldy 3197]

Is it Sukhothai?
