Saskatchewan River

             The Saskatchewan River is a major river in Canada, approximately 550 km (340 mi) long, flowing roughly eastward across Saskatchewan and Manitoba to empty into Lake Winnipeg. The Saskatchewan River is featured in The Arrogant Worms' song "The Last Saskatchewan Pirate", which implies incorrectly that it flows past Regina, Saskatchewan. Through its tributaries the North Saskatchewan and South Saskatchewan, its watershed encompasses much of the prairie regions of central Canada, stretching westward to the Rocky Mountains in Alberta and northwestern Montana in the United States. It reaches 1,939 kilometres (1,205 mi) to its farthest headwaters on the Bow River, a tributary of the South Saskatchewan in Alberta.

Banana tree

         Banana is one of the oldest cultivated plants, beeing the common name for herbaceous plants of the genus Musa and for the fruit they produce. Worldwide, there is no sharp distinction between "bananas" and "plantains". They are native to tropical South and Southeast Asia, and are likely to have been first domesticated in Papua New Guinea. They are grown in at least 107 countries beeing cultivated throughout the tropics primarily for their fruit.
          Almost all modern edible parthenocarpic bananas come from two wild species – Musa acuminata and Musa balbisiana. 
          The banana plant is the largest herbaceous flowering plant. The plants are normally tall and fairly sturdy and are often mistaken for trees, but their main or upright stem is actually a pseudostem that grows 6 to 7.6 metres (20 to 24.9 ft) tall, growing from a corm. Each pseudostem can produce a single bunch of bananas. After fruiting, the pseudostem dies, but offshoots may develop from the base of the plant. Many varieties of bananas are perennial.

Ebro river

          Ebro (Ebre) is one of the most important rivers in the Iberian Peninsula. It is the biggest river by discharge volume in Spain. The hinterland climate becomes progressively more continental and drier, and therefore there is an end from extreme temperatures accompanied by slow-growing dwarf juniper species to unvegetated desert steppes as in "llanos de Belchite" or "Calanda desert". Its source is in Fontibre (Cantabria), from the Latin words Fontes Iberis, source of the Ebro. The Ebro Delta (in Catalan: Delta de l'Ebre), in the Province of Tarragona, Catalonia, is one of the largest wetland areas (320 km²) in the western Mediterranean region.

       The Ebro flows through the following cities: Reinosa, Frias, Miranda de Ebro, Haro, Logroño, Calahorra, Tudela, Alagón, Utebo, Zaragoza, Flix, Móra d'Ebre, Benifallet, Tivenys, Xerta, Aldover, Tortosa, Amposta. The main tributaries are Jalón, Gállego, Cinca-Segre, Aragó.
