This is what a high tea on the Maas looks like
A high tea in Rotterdam is different than on a narrow canal. The Meuse is wide and the boats are spacious, so there is room for long tables and large windows. The contrast makes it special: fine sweet snacks and fresh tea, with container ships and towers as decor.

& # 8220; We have had a very nice baby shower with my family and friends. As a pregnant woman have sailed through the canals of Amsterdam. Luckily we had wonderful weather and the baby shower decoration was beautiful. We really enjoyed the delicious freshly prepared BBQ and delicious chilled drinks.
