Well I go to Amsterdam Every july long weekend it is the best place on earth (well for me anyways) I LOVE it the a place I truly feel at home, I love to smoke weed and let me tell you when you go in to a bar and you see the bartender smoking a cannon its Awsome. Its just that everyone there is a pot head and all on the same level.. ITs Great.....I stay at the bull dog its wicked there you get a room the thers a loung bar you can chill in 24hrs and only guests can ues its its a must stay sweet place and close to anything you want to do.........As for Coffee Shops I ya sorry i'm a bit bias cuz I believe Barney's is the BEST coffee shop in all of amsterdam the have numorous Canibis cup winners THE WOLDS bets weed all at one place..
