Olive tree, Paeque de Bravo Murillo, Madrid

I used to live near here and it seemed then that it took the local authorities at least 10 years to turn this narrow strip of land between Calle Bravo Murillo and the water works grounds of Canal Isabel II into a pleasant park. But I had reason to go past here yesterday and found that it had at long last opened.

Many thanks, Roland!
I am puzzled, Roland. I saw your comment on my 'your photos' page but not this main photo page. No idea where it went but it's on a par with some odd things happening recently on this site!

Andy,
No idea how I missed this marvelous photo --- found it on Clickity click ( Chris ) page in her favorites.

Hope you are continuing to get stronger,

Peggy

Thank you, Peggy! Shot taken on one of my rare excursions into Madrid centre (usually for medical check-ups and so on). I also need to keep my walking / paces up and I sometimes go back to my old haunts such as this out of pure nostalgia!
