I’d read that Rotterdam was the only city in the Netherlands that doesn’t have a declining population of ‘young’ people, so was pretty keen to go take a look. When we arrived into our hostel the bar was full of old Dutch people having a birthday party for Jojo – they were all wearing red handkerchiefs and angel wings…

This is a bad pic but the woman dancing in the background had a dress with sunflowers sewn all over it – bridget you would have loved it!
The rooms at the hostel were themed, ours was the ‘Festival’ room. We left and stumbled across – yes you guessed it – a Festival. Hmmm. A whole street had been blocked off and completely covered in pink dots – walls, ground, windows – everything…

Wandered about the city, discovered the port area with a huge ocean liner berthed there.

Check out these lights – looks as though they were moveable.

Settled in at a canalside bar for a few drinks – this was their mascot (it was motorised, the jaw and tongue moved!)
