Glijhuys (Sliding House)
|
Besides learning there is also time for fun, in the Sliding house there are a number of slides.
On the roof Laaf Lef is sweeping clean the chimney. |

- Excerpt from Lavenloop -
'The next house we visit is a place of amusement. Understand, I don’t abhor amusement. Only it is well known that such institutions speak to one’s imagination. I assume you understand my position, but after the school there is of course a difference is quantity. The Glijhuys (Slide house) for this is the house I am referring to. Enjoys an unremitting interest from young and old. Justified of course because it is an ingenious building. It belongs in a playground but thanks to input from excellent architects it has grown into a perfect pearl. You simply must go inside and once you are in you may as well slide out. I would like to confess to you in the strictest of confidence that I myself take part in my free time. When there’s no one around of course'
