Entering Rotterdam
Early this morning we entered Rotterdam harbor, one of the busies harbors in Europe. During first light we entered the breakwater, and traveled for two and an half hours inland, before going alongside. On the way passing the dikes that are supposed to protect the harbor from flooding during storm tides. These dikes are counted among modern engineering marvels, and were somewhat bigger than I anticipated, only seeing them on a Discovery documentary previously.
