Four pictures from Brundholme Wood above the gorge of the River Greta in Cumbria.
Nothing visual says “tropical” more directly than flowering trees. These are a few from St. Gilles les Bains, on the east of the Indian Ocean island of La Réunion. And of course some tropical palm trees.

The Greta is a formidable river as it enters its gorge upstream from Keswick. The K2T Keswick Railway Footpath follows the river downstream from Threlkeld. This is the view from Low Pearson’s Bridge with meltwater and a day’s rain fuelling the flow.
More than a few years since I first walked this route; now the Greta is a neighbour and I cross it and enjoy the varying moods of the river when I’m walking to the supermarket in Keswick.
