Starting at
the Riverside Park picnic area, we'll head off to the
right (upstream), in the shade of the Canary Island
palms, to the Afton Street footbridge.
The shared path
(for walkers and cyclists) follows the curves of the
river bank, and on a sunny day is bathed in the dappled
light of sun shining through the palm trees.
To our left is the river, lined by the
palms. On a still day, we can see some lovely reflections.
To our right is a grassy bank rising to the road
(The Boulevard), which is a residential street. Soon we
approach a small grove of trees at the beginning of the Afton Street footbridge.
