Rotterdam - In the Steps of Toto

Rotterdam is a very modern city.  Since there was a lot of destruction during the war, most of the buildings are very modern, with little of the old style architecture we saw in the other cities we visited. 

A collection of really weird  buildings.

Some cube shaped houses.  I imagine it would be hard to put anything against the wall, and the people who live inside probably hit their heads a lot.

 

This car had recently driven out of the parking structure.  No really, we are not sure if it did or if it's just someone's idea of art.

We visited what Bram's friend called a "boat graveyard", filled with an assortment of old boats.

We can never decide who's in charge.

In the boat graveyard, there was also some pretty heavy duty ship yard equipment.

Another example of the Dutch language.  Check out that word.  Not only is it 19 letters long, it also has a jfsh next to each other. 

 We came across Rotterdam's "Walk of Fame", with the footprints and handprints of various celebrities.

Gloria Estefan:

The band members of Toto!

Roy Charles

John Denver

And... Shrek?

 

Two dimensional trees are all the rage in Holland.
