A photo from... Nacht van de Kaap at Wereldhavendagen in Rotterdam

You can see more photos and read more about the story of this celebration of the seedier side of a sailor's life on the Must Love Festivals' blog. It's one party worth going to if you're ever remotely local... Just don't forget your sailor's hat!
