I actually traveled to Germany on the SS Rotterdam via Amsterdam in 1959. I was 9 mos old. The only memories I have are of the story my momtol. My dad was stationed in Germany and went before us. He met us at port. We spent the next 4 years in Germany.

I love how the Dutch guys narraration is like “gluckenspëiler” or whatever, then an English word comes along and he’s like, Lawn Chair (in a slight American accent)

At 3.52 that man looks like Stephen Fry in his "Jeeves" part? Great video and a majestic and proud ship.

Gran acierto haber preservado este histórico trasatlántico. Desde 2008 convertido en hotel y museo en el puerto de Rotterdam. Desgraciadamente no se pudo o mas bien no intereso hacerlo con otro histórico trasatlántico el ss. NORWAY el legendario ss. FRANCE. Una verdadera lástima hoy en dia seria otro hotel y museo en algun puerto importante de Europa como lo es el que nos ocupa. En fin una vergüenza, mi enhorabuena por preservar este gran buque holandés.

The "modern navigation tools" like - er - a compass...

It’s a very good compass

Je wil gewoon weten welke haarlak ze destijds hebben als je bij Beatrix amper een haartje ziet wapperen in de wind op de brug😂

[@Rotterdam-hoogvliet]
