Description

Found a place with several parking bays in the middle of a residential area in Hillegersberg/Schiebroek. Once arrived at the destination, it turns out to be extremely busy. All places occupied, then looked for a place on the street. That just doesn't work. Turns out that a small recreation park is located within walking distance, which is quite popular with families with small children given the crowds.
A nice approach route takes us to the Bospolder district where we soon find a nice terrace. We linger there for a while. The Tingeling-Te Laat tram passes by. Also a nice way to see the city. From the terrace I saw some nice facades so I had to take a look. At the end of the street (the Noordschans) I come across a mill hull. It is the remnant of a round top mill built in 1771 as a malt mill, originally called"Rauwketen\\\", renamed"de Charity\\\", rebuilt as a grain mill and renamed" the grain of wheat\\\".
We continue cycling and pass through Historic Delfshaven. Created around 1400 after the city of Delft had built a harbor between the Delfts Schie and the Maas. It is, among other things, the birthplace of Piet Heyn. 400 years ago the Pilgrimfathers also left for America.
We drive past the bicycle tunnel that goes under the Maas, and the Euromast.
See the Erasmus Bridge in the distance, which we later cross on our way to the Kop van Zuid, where we can take a closer look at the departure/arrival hall of the Holland America Line. Since there is a long queue at the restaurant, we cycle a bit further to enjoy a delicious grilled cheese sandwich at Katendrecht.
On the way to the center we pass"Ketelbinkie\\\" the SS Rotterdam, and murals in the Afrikaanderwijk.
