The Euromast in RotterdamView from the mast over Rotterdam

Today we stopped in Rotterdam on our way to Amsterdam. We only spent around 3 hours in Rotterdam. Enough time to have lunch and the visit the Euromast (another tower). The tower was really different as it had a lift at the top viewing platform that took a whole section of the platform an extra 85 metres to the top of the mast. This section similar to the giant drop in Dreamworld also rotates to give you a 360 degree view as you go up and then at the top it continues to rotate so you get a good view of the entire city. It was really very eerie as there were glass sections in the floor and it looked as if you were hanging out over the road below at 185 metres looking straight down. We left Rotterdam and arrived in Amsterdam at around 4pm and made our way the the hotel. Went into the city for a look around but we will do some more tomorrow and post it separately.
