OK, so one crossword book I once had always fooled me by calling rivers flow-ers.
Even now I'll cheat for rivers include water mills and water mills do the same job as wind mills. Some might say that the wind is a river of moving air.
My first river is in France
This is at Veules Les Roses in Normandy, described as the smallest river in France. When I was there, in October 1998, it was in full flood, but still very pretty. It also had remnants of previous use.
For peace and tranquility, though (not to mention midges), you can't beat the Scottish Southern uplands. This is the River Ettrick near Ettrick Bridge and the waterfall is The Grey Mare's Tail, plunging down to Moffatt Water
