Saturday 13 July 2013 - Rotterdam, Netherlands

After crossing the English Channel we docked in Rotterdam. We entered a basseng which was not much bigger than the Sea Princess, the Captain and the crew swung the ship around virtually on a 5cent piece. I only think we had 20m clearance from and back. Amazing work. The ship is not a small boat measuring 261m in length.
I did not go ashore in Rotterdam, but took a few photos from the ship. We were docked next to a pretty bridge called Erasmusbrug but named The Swan because of its shape. The White House, one of the few buildings that survived the bombng in 1940, was the tallest building here when completed
