Port of Rotterdam


Last saterday I went  on a trip with a friend to Rotterdam. We made a boattrip through the harbour of Rotterdam.
The boat was named after a the Dutch seafarer and explorer Abel Tasman (the boat on the right).



We started at the Erasmusbridge, it's nickname is The Swan.









At the front a statue, on the left a cruiseship of the Holland America line named 'the Rotterdam'.


Cargo in the harbour





'The Rotterdam' almost ready to leave the harbour of Rotterdam on his way to Norway for a cruise.



A fireboat salutes the cruiseship as it departs.

It was a great day.
