Today Munen and Toolakha took us on a trip around Rotterdam. We first made a stop at the New Luxor theatre in Rotterdam. Here Munen and Toolakha come when they want to see a musical, a comedian or sometimes even a concert. It's the red building.

From here we walked towards the Erasmus bridge, also know as the Swan. When you're on this bridge and you look back in the direction you came from you see the Luxor theatre on the right. On the left there is another red building. This is the Court of Justice of Rotterdam.

When you walk on the bridge you can also get a good look at "de kop van Zuid", the head of the South. This is where you'll find Hotel New York. It's an old building surrounded by new buildings. It's quite historic for this is the location where people used to go on board of the big steam ships to go to the States.
It's hard to find the building in our picture for it's closed in by  Montevideo skyscraper of 140 metres high (459 feet) and the World Port Centre which is 138 metres high (452 feet).

At the end of the Erasmusbridge you have a good view on "Boompjes", the street where many offices (tall buildings are situated), but also on the "red" Willemsbrug, the Northern Island and in the far back, the old railway bridge.
