Cologne (dpa / lnw) - With the best summer weather on the first day of the easing for vaccinated and convalescent people, the rush to the excursion destinations in North Rhine-Westphalia did not initially exist until Sunday noon.

In the Westpark in Bochum and at the Kemnader See, many people were out to do sports in the fresh air.

The situation is relaxed and the distance is maintained, reported a dpa reporter.

The situation in Cologne was similar.

The police authorities in Düsseldorf, Aachen, Dortmund and Cologne were also initially not notified of any violations of the rules.

Heavily visited places were specifically controlled.

In Venlo, the Netherlands, there were also many day trippers in the city center.

Here, too, everything is under control, said a city spokesman.

However, it remains to be seen how the situation develops in the afternoon.
