It might look slightly dark however I can assure the weather here is incredible, we are in the middle of a heat wave with temperatures above 35 celsius. I am sure many photos will follow on her last journey as Rotterdam, I was just the first one to post today.

Rare VMax1700 Posted August 10, 2020 #58 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Thanks everyone for the pictures. Watched some of the sail in, but missed a lot of it. I hope the Amsterdam arrives an hour or two later than RDM. (Secretly, I had hoped that RDM would have been delayed slightly!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare rafinmd Posted August 10, 2020 #60 Share Posted August 10, 2020 I believe she has one more voyage as MS Rotterdam, a short one from the cruise terminal to a shipyard. Roy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunar Dragon Posted August 10, 2020 #69 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Thank you for the pictures and videos! Had tears in my eyes seeing her arrive for the last time in Rotterdam. We have traveled on her many times, last year to the north pole. Little did we know that was our last trip on her! I do hope the lovely art work gets transferred to the Rotterdam VII! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzingnut Posted August 10, 2020 #70 Share Posted August 10, 2020 @rotjeknor Thank your son for the great pics and I hope maybe he can do the same when the Amsterdam comes by? If possible? I don't believe she will actually dock there but if the dry dock is in the area, hopefully he can catch some pictures of her. Thank you, Linda R. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Amsterdam will go straight to Damen Shipyards. He won’t be able to take pics there . If I see any pics on websites from shiplovers in the area , I’ll ask if I can post those . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
