Direction Portugal Day 8

The lake (Lac du Der) where I am camping today is the first artificial lake in Europe. Why, when, and why I do not know.

Metz

We spent the day in Metz waiting for the rain to pass. That was quite useful, considering that the days ahead will have shorter distances and more locks. So, we planned to...
