Pieterpad 3

a good early breakfast

rain was threatening, so we started walking right away

only a little damp

7 voetvallen, not sure but it looked like stages of the cross

Lourdes Grotto

At the end of August there's a procession 

going up to this place from Sittard every year

this field path was way deep

this part of the trail had more hills

this field was unharvested to leave food for a rare hamster

suddenly this big old building , Watersley

this farm is square with a yard in the middle

a Carre Farm

Looking back on the farm and the Waterley building

healing water

walk through town

love this views in backyards

some houses have shutters

d-tour because of a dumpsite of drug making chemicals

at Windraak

not often do we have steps

most steps had an owl carved in the top post

Pieterpad is about 500 km

It will take us a while

looked cool 

very inviting bench

Fachwerk houses

walk down the slakweg

Castle Terborgh

they opened at 11 but we were there at 10.30 and 

they served us at 10.45, 

we were thankful because we had a train to catch

on the way to the train it was muddy

somehow we were at the wrong platform waiting for the train

so when the train arrived we had to run to catch it

It was raining in Sittard when we walked 

from the train station to the hotel

It had been dry so far, thankful that the rain missed us

Hope to be back on the trail the next time we're in the Netherlands
