I had a great time visiting lots of amazing architecture in western Germany and the Netherlands. I am about to take off for my 2nd leg of travel in Rome and Florence... followed by Zurich, Munich and Berlin for the remaining 2 weeks.
Here is a quick overview. You can see pictures of the various buildings I visited here:

Tuesday - visited industrial redevelopment buildings in Essen, Germany. Drove to Rotterdam that night.
Wednesday - Tour of Rotterdam, saw a couple museums and other major buildings in Rotterdam
Thursday - Amsterdam! Amazingly beautiful city. Midday was spent on a bike tour of the harbor development with lots of new interesting architecture. Spent the evening walking around Amsterdam.
Friday - Utrecht. Another great Dutch city. I saw one of my favorite buildings in the world called the Educatorium by Rem Koolhaas at Utrecht University. Also went to an exotic car dealer which was amazing. Great day. After dinner we drove through the night back to Copenhagen.
Saturday - packing for my travels in Italy, Switzerland and Germany.
Sunday - Flying to Rome! stay posted.
