St Tropez? Miami? Dubai? No.Warsaw. Oh yes, there is a palm tree in the centre of Warsaw. The trick? It's not real. So the story goes that it was meant to be a temporary fixture on the roundabout Rondo De Gaulle but the people of Warsaw fell in love with the leafy structure and from then on it sits in the middle of a busy intersection. I think it is quite a funny tree (sculpture?) and makes me laugh whenever I see it. Hey and it never needs watering.
