On further consideration it can't possibly be Scotland: there's blue in the sky and pretty flowers in the (very lush, green) grass. Come to think of it, it looks a bit girly.
Wow. The sort of photograph I'd expect on a Postcard. (Except there's no beautiful flowers or damsel in distress on the edge of a precipice...) Fabulous.
I'm not having any luck guessing the picture but I am glad to see you're back - it seems everyone is away having adventures so it's been very quiet. I'm still in Yorkshire playing the 'waiting' game - 10 days to go now to d day!
Well then. All very flattering comments (except, of course la petite porcelette :-) )
Suffolk & Norfolk would be the usual stomping ground at this time of year, but Dave H gets the prize for being the closest (not in geographical terms but for the way in which we scaled the heights that particular day.... by cable car *blush*...)
The Odyssee (Alan) & Faraz were the closest geographically, as we were in the Pyrenees, for a bit of an emotional break, walking a section of the Haute Route.
There will be more to come on this fabulous place.
Have I mentioned beer yet? No. But there was lots of it in the most breathtakingly beautiful place I have ever seen in my life.
I wasn't too far away was i. We are both looking forward to reading your review and seeing the photo's. And i think i can now taste a beer coming on. Cheers.
Glad to see you've ventured deep into the unknown, Alan. It looks to me a little like the Cirque d'Espingo, but I may be mistaken as there are no marmots visible in the picture! Careful now! That area is addictive. (Slavering in anticipation of your report.)

ReplyDeleteLooks strangely familiar *g*
Stunning. I am guessing Scandinavia?
ReplyDeleteThird attempt to leave a comment. I think you're just deleting them. Bastard.
ReplyDeleteWord==Soolu :)
Ahh Suffolk?
ReplyDeleteNorfolk? As in Norfolk and good?
ReplyDeleteGood to see you back on the air!

Could be anywhere from Scotland to Patagonia as far as I can see but wherever it is I want to go there!

ReplyDeleteFabulous.
I am going to stick my neck out and say Croatia or the lower slopes of Andorra.
ReplyDeletethat's not the walk to your local
ReplyDeletegreat photo
Great photo Alan. Where've you been? Ta-ta's in the Tatra's? Welcome home!
ReplyDeletewherever it is, those hills look very scary. beautiful but scary.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful but scary indeed.
ReplyDeleteMordor is an unusual choice, but a bold one. Now, don't slip that ring on your finger again!

It's been a while since I last visited but I recognise Narnia anyday!
ReplyDeleteStunning picture! I'm going to guess that it's somewhere in Patagonia.
ReplyDeleteI'll second Andorra...

ReplyDeleteWanda will be happy to hear you describe her interior in such enthusiastic terms :)

ReplyDeletewow that photo is amazing when you click on it and make it bigger :-)but somehow i dont think its in Norfolk lol
ReplyDeleteAnd I thought it looked like Fen Drayton, or near Cauterets!

I know exactly where that is (which might provide others with a clue). Do I get a prize !!!
ReplyDeleteI think Jack & Andy are correct. It was just above Cauterets - we sneaked up though the clouds in the cable cars into wonderful sunshine.
ReplyDeleteI know I keep saying it, but there will be more on our trip later1
Great pic, old chap!
