I have no problems with continuing with this Fin. Thank you anyway. Still dead slow if not dead.

Wild guess at Canada.

Thanks Ex. Good guess. Very close, but not Canada. Again.

Alaska has about 3,197 officially named natural lakes out of over 3,000,000 unnamed natural lakes, So take your pick.

I'll go for Lake Hood Anchorage. Mainly as it is the biggest float plane base and with a bit of imagination I found a similar photo.

Two hunters are picked up by float plane. They try to load a huge bison. The pilot said, 'you can't load that it is too heavy'. Guys says, 'we did last year'. The pilot relents. They struggled to get airborne, just made it over the trees and crashed. The pilot says, 'I thought that you said that you did this last year'. 'Yes' says one of the guys. 'But you did really well, we didn't even make it this far last year'

An old one but still amusing.

It's in a National Park somewhat famous for wildlife. Not accessible by road.

And you found my sunrise. Plentiful bears in the park are likely the main attraction. My first ride in a turbine Cessna on floats as well.

DBx has the con.

At a glance I would put my money on it being Greece, from the colours, background, tiles, layout, etc.

One of the islands?

Correct Cape but not Amorgos. That gives you about another 200 occupied ones to choose from. Do you like the way they have to put the menu in frog as they either do not understand Greek or English or if they do refuse to.
