Going to Amsterdam

[Lulu]

My sis & I have decided to go to Amsterdam Tue to Fri week after next. Anybody have any recommendations that we *have to try*? Just looking to escape our reality for a few short (sweet) days.

I highly suggest the local marijuana.

well u gotta try AK47, a personal recommendation would Jack Herer, its cheaper than the more expensive stuff but just as powerful, on the hash front "bubblegum" and "temple balls" cant be missed. ull see a lot of different names for things, the same weed can be called something else in another coffeeshop, but the ones mentioned ull find pretty much anywhere. u could try shrooms out of the smart shops if u were so inclined, if the city streets are too much while tripping theres plenty of parks and art galleries to nicely trip out in.it aint a cheap city by any means but ull save money if u shop around. anyway enjoy urselves, if ur from the US,welcome to europe, if not , nice one.

hey man cool.... i'm moving to amsterdam in two years can't wait... don't like the weather but the legal buds will make up for it....

My sis lived there in the early 90's. Sold her car and moved over with her boyfriend. She's still got friends there and she really knows her way around. She's also fantastic company when you're stoned so I know I'm gonna have a blast. Thanks for all the tips I'll give you a blow by blow account when I return. Ciao!

cool lulu... the current government really sucks and I have heard that they have banned cannabis smoking in coffee shops and it is now restricted to smoking indoors only :mad:

they tried to ban it but didnt, theres a more worrying law their trying to bring in though (cannabis selling to dutch residents only) but i doubt itll get through though, the coffee shops bring in MILLIONS in tax money

This time of year you should visit the bulb fields near Leiden.
I lived in that area for 12 years and when the fields are in full flower its awesome.Leiden also has a few good coffee shops.

Ok I've been online all morning trying to book flights - phew! the price 320.00euros each return plus taxes - I don't think so........

Anyway I can get cheap flights to Rotterdam - is that gonna be an age on the train/taxi/helicopter/hot air balloon?????????????

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I was thinking of doing the same thing and wondered what you have to go through in terms of red tape and paperwork to get it done? How to do it in every sense: reseacrching where to live, what jobs are available, etc.... I too would be moving there to enjoy a freer cannabis climate, there is a lot of talk about how things are not all paradise there and that the current govt is bad, but it still sure beats the US of A, "The Freest Country in the World" as some delude themselves into thinking! PEACE!!!

I am also interested in ways I can find out the most affordable options for a long vacation, anywhere from a couple of weeks to a couple of months... I heard for instance that it is fairly common in Europe for people to let you stay in their homes in a sapre room or something, that could be affordable! So any ideas how I can learn more about accomodations, short-term work, eating places, places of interest, menus of coffeeshops and other good stuff AHEAD OF TIME so I can take full advantage of my time there? Thanks for any help! PEACE
