SS Rotterdam

Rotterdam yesterday.
Poor me, all hotels were overbooked, due to the world championship ping-pong; so I had to spend the night in a luxury cruise ship..... The S.S. Rotterdam is a former Holland-NewYork liner, which is restored in all its beauty and is now in use as a hotel. Looks better than these floating apartment blocks you see across the Mediterranean. From its deck it has the most beautiful view across the water and the city lights of Rotterdam.
Ik mocht een nachtje slapen op de SS Rotterdam, een oud gerestaureerd cruiseschip, dat nu aan de kade ligt. Een gweldig uitzicht over de lichtjes van de stad aan de ander kant van het water.
Remark: there was a general problem with blogger: they removed all posts and comments since wednesday.

It looks great inside, you can visit it easily when going through the cafe and restaurants, which are open for the public.

I am not that lucky every week. This week it's an ordinary hotel.
