Today I went to the library at TU-Delft, the other university (we also use their sports facilities). I actually spent more time on the library that in it (we spent about 5 minutes inside, there aren't that many books there, not quite like the stacks). The building has a green roof. Not a garden, but a sodded roof. At first I just thought it was a hill. The steepest part has about a 20% grade so you can just climb on up (there are hand rails so you don't fall off). Unfortunately, this is the best photo I took, since it was at about 5PM and getting dark.
Jaime (Bolivia) and I had planned on climbing (356 steps) to the top of Nieuwe Kerk (New Church, even though it's over 500 years old), but it had already closed at 4PM (winter schedule). So we wandered around the market (every Thursday in the main square), then went for a bike ride and ended up at the library. I'm supposed to visit again with class for orientation next week. I hope I get a better picture.

I think the picture of the grass roof is great! What fun.
