September 21, 2022,Tag 13. Stein nach Venlo

Today was our last day on the Maas. So starting tomorrow, east goes west.
That meant well with us again and we enjoyed this day.
You got a little impression of the Netherlands.
The paths were almost all good, there are always exceptions.
From Venlo we continue towards Münster, from there we change to the train.
