Boat tour of Rotterdam Harbor

John and I took a hour long boat tour of Rotterdam Harbor.  It's the busiest port on earth.  This is a picture of one of the tour boats, and we got to drink coffee on the boat.  The swan bridge is in the background.

 
A view of a nifty building and the euromast; and two modern skyscrapers on either  side of the old Holland-America shipping line hotel.  The older building is now Hotel New York.  The taller building on the right is the tallest residential building in Rotterdam.  
 
There are several tunnels under the river.  There is a pedestrian tunnel, a bike tunnel, and a tunnel for cars.  The building with the green dome is one of the ventilation shafts.  You can also see the Euromast in the distance. 
  
A couple of boats on the river.  The "Rotterdam" on the left is an older steam powered cruise ship.  The boat on the right is a modern cargo ship that was getting unloaded.
