Rotterdam Just Has It

by mafootje - last update: Jul 29, 2007

Rotterdam 2007

Cubik Homes got purple.
It's the year of architecture, all around Rotterdam you can find purple accents on buildings and structures. Looking for the accents on itself is fun to do, here are the famous cubic homes which also had some color added.

Summercarnaval 2007

Again the Summercarnaval had all the luck it could have one of the few dry and sunny days this month and they got it. It was a colourful day which completly blocked the city center of Rotterdam for cars. Instead of that about 50 trucks and hundred of thousands people laughing, dancing and making music.

Around central station there is construction going on, slowly old sights are being removed to be replaced. This saturday there was an action for the Tsunami disaster. After giving a donation you could get lifted up high above the entrance of central station....the views were great...

 Michel, great Rotterdam page. After all my one day visits, I decided to stay finally for the weekend last summer. Nice to see your zoo pictures. I visited Blijdorp only once as kid. Now I am a regular visitor of the Emmen Zoo as neighbour.

 Hi Michel, Thank you too for dropping by. I loved the (black foot) penguins from the South African Coast!:~))
