Confirm Berlin in November / Port visit

Jacky and me is going with Chris, my German friend, to Berlin! By car!
Anyone wants to join please let me know! Ha

There was a visit to the Port of Rotterdam organized by the international office of RSM. We took a tram to beurs and then switched to tram 25 to World Port Center.

Emily and me

We attended a introductory talk in the center. We had some tea and cake there. The PR manager briedfly introduced the history, operations, goods handled by the port and the advanced control system of the port.

Later, we took the bus and visited the real terminal. Port of Rotterdam is the biggest port in Europe and the thrid largest port in the world, after Shanhai and Singapore. It is an important entre port for neighbour countries like Belgium, Germany, France etc. I paid a visit to HACTL, the Hong Kong Air Cargo Terminal also. Personally I think the one in Hong Kong was more advanced with more automation, and organization. (Ha. Maybe people really have special preference for their own product.)


But I really like the wind power station there. They look so nice. And when you come to the port, you will know why there are so many wind turbines. It is really windy there. The wind is so strong that will make you shake. I think it is even stronger than HK singal 8 wind in Tsim Sha Tsui! Horrible.

Erasmus Bridge

After the visit, Hui-Tze, Jacky and I went to Euromast due to the free entrance(Rotterdam Pass). We also enjoyed a free drink there.
