    We did a couple of trips in the second half of 2022 for which we had not yet put up a trip report but which were a lot of fun. Our most recent trip was to Stade and Hamburg.

    A trip report with pictures can be found here

    "Castle Loevestein was built between 1357 and 1397 at a strategic point, where the Maas and Waal rivers unite, allowing it to control the local trade. During the 80 years war, it changed hands twice between the Dutch and the Spanish. From 1619 the castle became a prison, used mainly for political prisoners."

    You know, just casually taking a spontaneous flight and seeing castles and landmarks that are older than my entire country (USA). Love it!

    I always enjoy reading your reports. I have a trip to Eindhoven in May. Maybe we can meet up.

    What a fantastic way to explore Europe. I always enjoy train travel in that part of the world, but you are giving me a fantastic idea of a September holiday, explore France, Loire valley, Burgundy, Sarlet -- than had up North to Normandy, Brittany, etc. Keep on posting, these are fun to read.
