Sort of a carpark view. Our boat is parked over on the left hand side

A walk from Kingston to Hampton Court Palace and Bushy Park today, before jumping on the X26 in Teddington to head home.

I live a few stops down the X26 down by the ponds, that probably gives my location away

@Flashback I love those English walks, so much to see and look at.

Some more from yesterday on the Derwent

Going under the Tasman Bridge





Botanical Gardens



And now the less scenic portions of the Derwent

Selfs Point fuel depot



Electrolytic zinc works





The very old May Queen getting a new paint job



An old place hiding behind the industry



Going back under the Tasman Bridge. The asymmetric spans are because in the gap is the sunken bulk ore carrier Lake Illawarra, which hit the bridge in 1975 and took out two piers and 3 spans.

Dad worked for, and we were accommodated by, the Electrolytic Zinc Works, back in the 50s. Had friends with a boat who used to take us out on Regatta Day, but no Tasman Bridge back then. Enjoyed the pics.

EZ recently announced a major refurb! Will be going for a fair while yet.

Having our morning coffee, overlooking the Hunter River at Maitland. The river level dropped 2 metres just last night, and 5 metres the day before. You can see how high it got by the marks on the far bank. No wonder the locals were nervous.

There have been a lot of flood mitigation works over the years and, thankfully, they've made a huge difference.
