going to amsterdam

[aam]

probably going for a few days. what are the best cafes to go to? what else is there to do? has anyone ever bought any weed back on the plane with them, and if so how much?

[Reefer Rogue]

Look up De Kroon, Ummagumma, Homegrown Fantasy and Dreadrock. Yes, my friend brought 5 grams back with him.

[aam]

i was thinking of bringing back an ounce. is that too much?

You have to be 18, I believe. And the cost of herb ranges from like 5 Euro to 20 Euro per gram (even a bit more), I believe. Hash isn't too much more expensive, I don't think. It could be different now, but I was looking at some menus for some of the coffeeshops awhile back. I think some herb is even like 3 Euro per gram. Do the currency conversion yourself. Plus, you won't be paying in USD, you'll be paying in Euro. So it doesn't really matter.

I am not sure how much better the 20 Euro a gram stuff would be compared to, say, 5 Euro or 10 Euro per gram stuff. I bet it's just the most popular strains that are real expensive... supply and demand.

Hope you have a great time!!! Sounds great!!!

I wouldn't chance bringing a Z back with you.

I imagine you could get lucky and get it home but is it really worth the risk??

You are better off bringing beans home with you.:rastasmoke:

Hash or butter is probably a lot easier to get home too...think about it.:hippy:

hey dudes, i have an apartment in amsterdam so here's the scoop:
my favorite coffee shop is probably the Dampkring, the Rokerij IV, or outside of the anne frank museum (:

don't bring back weed dude... it's stupid and not worth it. if you want to try, mail it to yourself.

you HAVE to be 18 to get in a coffee shop. some even 19. also normally weed costs around 7,50 euros. id say 11 bucks US for a gram. not bad.

You find a coffeeshop that wants to loose their license and they will let you in. I'll let Double Reggae (http://www.black-arts.org/~reatta/DoubleReggae.jpg) say it for me.
As a matter of fact, several shops now have raised their age limit to 21 just to be safe.
That said, you may stand a slightly better chance in Haarlem.

are there other ways to get weeds in Amsterdam then?

[Paulkishi]

I would reccomend Barney's and The Pink Floyd. I spent most of my time at Barneys, but I heard about the Pink Floyd and went over to that one, if you like the band Pink Floyd, it is played there ever other record they put on so that made the experience a good one for me. I only brought like 2 or 3 grams back with me cuz I get scared easilly and airports make me paranoid when I have weed.

[LIP]

I brought back about an 1/8 by accident this month when i went.

And they were checking ID's in ALL of the cafes i went to. If you aint 18, you aint getting served.

[exoticnoise]

yeah, i dont think you will get in at 17. but if you find some, and wanna bring it back with you, i wouldnt try bringing anymore than 10grms. every 3 months i go to cali from ohio to see my dad for acouple weeks, i get the weed, use my dad ciggy roller and grind up the weed and roll it up and put it in a cig pack and take it with me, 4 times never been cought. but im also not going out of country either. good luck.

[FreshRollyG]

My mate left for Amsterdam last week, he'd have some fun I guess; leaving the country but you're still getting high right lol...

But yeah, Amsterdam is definitely on my 'places to go' list; just I'm not sure if it'd be an advocate of the coffee shops as much anymore. I'd be more or less inclined to tour about Europe, possibly have a space cake prior if I decided to get high, but yeah... :stoned:

Happy toking guys.. Might not post again, or for a while now :thumbsup:

I'd imagine you looked old enough - and you are.

I didnt get ID'd myself, but plenty of people were. Mainly the younger ones in small groups.

Uh... I think I already answered the question in the post you're replying to... :wtf:

[wil86]

A friend of mine came into our uni house after we hadnt seen him a for a few days and says "I just come back from Poland and I came back through Amsterdam" and he pulled out £100 worth of weed and hash.

We asked him how he got it on the plane he just said that he cheeked it. Which is clenching it between both butt cheeks. Must have been hard to walk though.

This is what i always thought, put your bud in a bag and submerge it in something which has a strong odor e.g. Tub of marmite/coffee tin then dogs cant smell it. Not tried this though.

[WeedyBoyWonder]

buy it in USD

I hate to point out the obvious, but you do know Amsterdam isn't in the United States right? :stoned::stoned:
