    the 'Stairway to Heaven' open air escalator wasnt at Debenhams but really does lead to Heaven....

    after a long train ride, it takes guests up the final few metres to Christ the Redeemer in Rio.

    It's the Manor House that stands next to the main house at Burton Agnes. The room dates from the 12th.Century. It's the first building you get to after entering the grounds to the left of the main house itself. The Chamber is wonderful and I'm sure you must have been in it. I think EH own/run this bit but it's free to enter anyway.

    This has been (is) a great thread. With hindsight, we should've numbered the 'posers' ( not poseurs ) so that old duffers like me could keep track of the 'answers'. I have indeed lost track of castles and beaches, waterfalls, statues at home and abroadembarassed!

    its hard to label them one, two, three as it depends which one you click, however .....

    you're both in the right generic area, its the Amalfi Coast 

    the photo approaching the town fron a boat at sea is Capri.

    the one taken from the high garden with the 'busts' is Ravello.

    the other one is Sorrento.

    we actually stayed in Priano, nr Amalfi....beautiful.

    Knew I could count on you Steve! Fellow motorhomer from Nottinghamshire. I'm Scottish, but the weather here suits me better!. I took that photo between showers on a sunny grey day!

    Just noticed that my reference number has appeared as a 'link'. How odd!

    the waterfall is in Nice, in the park high above the eastern end of the city....

    the 'clue' beach picture shows the (obviously not) world famous pink dome of the art dèco Negresco Hotel.

    my earlier photo of the multi coloured art dèco 'Trumpet Player' was also taken there, he 'guards' the entrance to the hotel.

    wonderful treat to have lunch there....

    It is indeed. I will see if I can find something a bit harder, perhaps further afield.
