| Birds-eye view of Delft - from the top of the Nieuwe Kerk - 476 steps! |
| These windmills are fully operational - and open to visitors |
| It was great to go inside and climb up and see the shafts and gears. Each wooden gear tooth is individually replaceable - very cool! |

| Delft is an easy day trip by train from Amsterdam. I climbed to the top of the Nieuwe Kerk (New Church) to take this photo. I could actually see the Atlantic Ocean over the dunes in the haze. |

| For now, at least, this is the last page of of photos from our 2007 Baltic Adventure (in Europe). When I have time, I may add to the collection. I took well over 2000 photos! HMC - 09/09/07 Questions & Comments welcomed, Click Here to e-mail us. |

| An interesting art object in Delft - from the front it appears heart shaped. I assume the color represents Delft blue. |

| From Amsterdam's Central Station, DELFT was about a 45-minute train ride. We spent a most enjoyable day there. |
