July 19, 2023,Störche Tour von Veessen nach Deventer

Today was a wonderful tour on the IJssel. On the way we visited Deventer. A beautiful and cozy Hanseatic city in the province of Overijssel. Thanks to the historic city center and the unique river landscape, a visit is always worthwhile. Among other things, we were enthusiastic about the high stork population.
