Doubtful near Cesjacks? KNP? NSW? It's not Pitt Street.

Knew those rocks from somewhere. It's a lovely little ramble along the river there, in both directions.

Changing states, 'cause it's been in the east too long. Where in Western Australia did I spend this night?

Going out on a limb, my only WA visit long ago didn't get this far north - James Price Point?

Very safe limb, James Price it was. Glorious bit of coastline along there - and you can walk most of it too, provided you don't mind watching out for crocs. ;)

Thanks NNW, the Kimberley remains on my very long bucket list. Crocs 'n all. Which brings me to the next photo.

Despite the appearance and the fact that crocs can get into this creek, the location is quite urban.

Thanks Wobbly. Only been there once on a surf holiday. It was pretty wild when I was down there.

That's the lake but it's a big lake. A rough location would be preferred?

Is it on Mangrove Creek south of Boiler Flat Creek? (Although it looks too small to be that boiler)
