Views of Rotterdam

A view at the city Rotterdam with the river Meuse seen from the roof of a hospital. It is not pleasant to be ill and have to stay in bed but at least our poor family member we visited here has a room with a view. We couldn't resist the opportunity to go to the top floor with a terrace to make some photos. The round building on the left used to be a tropical swimming paradise but has been closed for some years and is now used as a mushroom farm!

It was a bright sunny day yesterday and you can see how the trees are trying to bud already at the top of the branches.

And a skywatch to the other side with in front the Willems bridge and in the back the Erasmus bridge.
I wish my fellowblogger of  "Een andere kijk" a successful recovery and hope he can go home very soon!

  3. The mushroom farm certainly is a quite different change from its previous use!

  4. I always enjoy seeing views of your cities. Do they do tours of the mushroom farm? Something to photograph if they did.

  5. I hope your friend is well enough to enjoy the view a bit and is able to go home soon. Rotterdam looks to be a beautiful city. From reading your blog, I realize how little I know about the Netherlands.
