[eggs]

Blanc = white - so yes.

[icefest]

Europe.
Name the lake, river, or dam!

[johnw]

Contra Dam, Ticino Switzerland?

[icefest]

Yes!

[johnw]

I can thank Google Lens for that one.

USA:

somewhere in Hawaii?

[johnw]

somewhere in Hawaii?

Sorry I completely forgot about this while we were away in WA et al. Distracted by other things I guess.
Yes it is in Hawaii. Location was used in a well known movie from I think the early sixties. Other clues available if needed.

[johnw]

In the grounds of an abandoned old hotel, at that time returning to nature. I'm not on Oahu.

[johnw]

To narrow it down I'm on Kauai. This location has featured previously.

[johnw]

854 views and one guess, I assume no one is playing atm. So time to wrap this up I think.
It's in the grounds of the deserted Coco Palms Hotel on Kauai, now almost as wild than the surrounding landscape.
Location for the 1961 Elvis Presley movie Blue Hawaii. Anyone can go next.

[GregR]

Well John,

I always figured it would be me who killed this game not you.

I've been away trekking in The Himalayas, so I'd like to ask - where is it? Where was I and what was I looking down onto. Any one of three wins the prize.

Where is greggles

[GregR]

24 hr clue time.

Nepal:

Hidden Valley only opened in recent years to trekkers- still a restricted area.

Large Nunnery on opposite side of valley taken from a cave up the side hill.

[GregR]

Ok,

97 views , no takers.

Was taken on the following trek.

Farewell Tsum Valley

[GregR]

I give up. Too hard .

It was Milrepas cave looking across the Tsum Valley at the Rachen Gompa.

Anybody can go.

I'm out.

How about this?

[johnw]

After a bit of detective work using the Greek flag and the Hotel Saron sign, I believe this is at the southern part of the Greek island of Poros.

[Last]

correct John. The town of Poros on the island of the same name.

[johnw]

Thanks. Sorry for the delay, busy the last couple of days.

Something offbeat. Where was I waiting in NZ while these guys were keeping everyone amused (and alert):

Mischievous Keas at the Homer Tunnel entrance en route to Milford Sound, Southland New Zealand

In a carpark?

[GregG]

There's probably a joke somewhere in this involving Kea and Kia.

[GregG]

I have a feeling that this could be the carpark of a lookout overlooking something interesting in the river valley below. But could be anywhere really.

Yeah maybe the divide? Or the chasm?

The Divide is not too far away on the same route. I'm waiting for something to allow us to proceed.

[eggs]

Maybe the stop light at the tunnel to Milford Sound?
