Recently I received following :

Last week the owners and operators of the Rotterdam made public that it is doubtful whether the Rotterdam will be open for the public this year. The work on the ship is proceeding very well. The main part of the interior is ready, except for the loose furniture and pieces of equipment. They can only be placed on board with permission of the authorities. The main issue on board now is testing the technical installation.

It's not good when she was due to open in July.

Alan, Mum and I will be back in Rotterdam on QM2 in June. I wonder if she will be ready by then?
