Het Maastrandje.

Last week we took what we thought would be a very sunny afternoon off but unfortunately there was a sudden weather change that felt like Mary Poppins was flying into town. (Olympics opening… wow!!)

It was still nice to discover a new place in Rotterdam though. Just a few kilometers from us, in Crooswijk, there happens to be a little beach onto the Maas river. The view of the city was from an angle I wasn't used to seeing much, so I could barely recognize Rotterdam.

I salute you.

Ok, give me the camera back.

Moss on the rocks and my new skirt!
Amy and her very skilled mum fixed it for me so I wouldn't be showing my bum!

Plan B for our picnic. 

I don't know the name of this bridge. Maybe you do, Dre?

De Watertoren. Built in 1871, designed by the architect C. B. der Taak, who during that period also happened 
to be the director of the municipality constructions.
