AMSTERDAM -- Anyone ever been to the Motherland??

Wuddup yall,

Just outta curiosity, seein as how every single smoker in the US has talked about how sweet it would be to make it over there at least once in their lifetime. Well, i made my pilgramige over to the 'Dam for my honeymoon a couple years back. Best 2 weeks of my fuckin life man. I would love to compare experiences, or field any questions, or just shoot the shit in general about the topic guys.

Hit me back n lemme know whats up

Went to Amsterdam in the early '80's, needless to say we had a great time between the coffee shops and the window shopping. Got to check out the Heineken brewery. It was a very cool time. Followed it up with a 4 day stop in Oslo Norway, different, very expensive but still quite cool.

I fuckin loved it there man. We stayed at the Golden Tulip hotel, which is nice - i mean, americans that travel for the majority look for amenities that remind them of home, lol, so we didnt stay at a hostel or anything - we basically picked the holiday inn of amsterdam, hehe. But yeah, it was a 5 minute walk to the metro, which took us right into Damm Square, and we went on foot from there. Started out at the Grasshopper - went in n hit that button that lit up the menu, n soon as i saw that shit i knew i was home, lol. Smoked a prerolled spliff of AK-47, wifey smoked on some white widow to the head, and we started our first day off right. Bought some prerollies of the grasshopper special, and some bubblegum, and we were off man. We musta hit up a total of 20 different coffeeshops n like 10 smartshops the whole time we were there, n did a SHITLOAD of shoppin too. We took the train from Amsterdam to Paris for her part of our honeymoon, which in my opinion fuckin sucked. The french are fuckin rude as shit, and the subways smell like stale god damn assjuice. The DUTCH on the otherhand, are some of the nicest, most accomadating, helpful people i have ever met in my life, in any country period.

We were there via ship, thus the next port in Oslo. I can't give you names of any of the places we checked out, it's been to long, but I did see a live sex show for $5, we even got one of our shy shipmates up on stage with the chick who promptly proceeded to blow him down......I'm still laughing over that one.

I have been a few times for some reason I can't remember parts of it . . . LOL Anybody eat that crap food out of the Automats? I was eating that crap all the time then one day I decided not to get high and I ate that stuff and almost threw up! There is a good comedy show I like to see when I go forgot what it is called. I always visit the Grey Area, in December Sinterclause day rocks! And Van Gogh museum is great, Belguim is a cool country too and only a short hop from Amsterdam.

amsterdam sounds like the fuckin shit and its definetly somewhere i want to visit before my life is over

man, the only downside to the trip was the food at the hotel. I was jonesin for some god damn food BAD one night, so i ordered room service. A nice, big fuckall god damn steak, and a shitload of fries man. the bellboy came up with the food n i did a little dance, n took the food in, opened it up,n there was some brown gravy typa shit all over my steak. I looked at it wierd, but said what the hell, im in Amsterdam, n went for it. I took ONE GOD DAMN BITE of this fuckin steak man, n i shit u not, threw the fuck up. It was sour. Not the gravy, the fuckin steak. I dont know if its what they feed their cows over there, or what, but that shit tasted like SHIT. so anyways, i ate the fries which were awesome, n then walked to the tram, got on that shit, hit the square at midnight- n shot down to the 420 cafe n got my fuckin ass 4 slices of spacecake. the chick behind the counter warned me not to eat more than 1/2 to 1 slice per session, n i was like yeah ok, no problem (thinkin in the back of my head all along FUCK YOU I AINT NO LIGHTWEIGHT. IM A GOD DAMN BURNOUT BITCH ILL EAT ALL THESE FUCKIN THINGS, lol). Anyways, went back to the hotel room, n i ate one cuz i was still fuckin hungry. it was sweet as fuck and covered in granule sugar on the outside, chocolate cake on theinside. Didnt taste ANY bud in there at all, but there was Northern Lights X 5x Haze in there. Ended up havin sex, n by the time i was done, i tried to stand up n couldnt man. Was the most intense high i have ever felt from eatin some weed ever in my entire life.

LMAO look at me man. im blabberin over a god damn piece of cake.

but yeah dude, the steak was shit. Dont eat beef over there. Always go for somethin else.

oh yeah, n i WANTED to go to the fuckin heineken museum but we didnt make it there. We went to the Amsterdam Dungeon- which was actually pretty fuckin scary when your all fucked up on mushrooms!!, n the next day we hit up the Anne Franke house, Sensi Seedbank Co. n the Marijuana Museum - i still got pics of the growroom over there too. Check this shit out man, big fatty fat fat nuggets too! after your done tourin the museum and peep out the growroom, you can go buy a nugget from the plants, they dry it out in like 20 minutes, and roll you up a doober for 10 euro. was the fuckin shit. Check this shit out:








--fuckin BONZO man. nug we bought was so fuckin sweet. I think it was Skunk #1, n it packed a high that overbore all the other chronic we had been smoking all day long. Was some serious shit. Was also the first time id smoked completely fresh bud n fell in love right then n there.

I got pics of Madam Teusseaus Wax Museum too, and ALOT of pics of the vicinity of the redlight district, but im in most of them, and i aint puttin up pics of myself or my wifey on here. No incriminating shit. Sorry. But it was fuckin AWESOME. the wax museum was cool as fuck. All those fuckin dummies looked so realistic man. I got me a pic of me standin next to Bob Marley, sittin down next to me playin the bongos. As for the Redlight District, you cant take pictures down there while your walking through the alleys cuz the whores husbands/pimps/whoever the fuck they are will come out n fuckin rob your ass if they see camera flashes. I saw it happen man. Just some helpful advice - i know you wanna take a picture of some random midget whore in a window while your down there when you go, but if you do, youll get jacked the fuck up, i swear to god, lol.

hahaha that is sick as fuck dude..everything that you just explained sounds sickkkkkk except the steak haha, but the bud pics of the growroom there..that is sick as fuck. i definetly have to go there one day for sure.

yeh u really do man. I wish more people would go, seriously - it makes me sad when i think about all the people that wanna go there so fuckin badly but cant afford to do it. The only reason i got there was cuz i got hit by a fuckin car n got money from a lawsuit i was waitin on for like 3 years finally. So we planned our wedding around that cash, and she picked somewhere to go, n so did i.

The reason i want everyone to go there is cuz every single smoker in america should see at least once in their life, a civilization that works with soft drugs decriminalized and tolerated. People smokin joints walking down the street. EVERYONE is so fuckin friendly, stoned or not - its just an awesome place to be. Hardly saw any cops there at all, and it wasn't all scummy like some politicians or older people want you to think it is. I mean, some parts are kinda bad, but every city in every state in the US has projects for christs sake. No big deal.

The majority of the ENTIRE city is so fuckin awesome - its how i wish that OUR country should and could be every damn day of my life man, and its a damn shame that politician fatcats and prescription companies owned by fatcat politicians will always stand in the way of marijuana being legalized or decriminalized, because it would cause a loss of money from their already fattened pockets. They arent even willing to fuckin listen to the fact that if they WERE to do it, and open up coffeeshops and make it a tolerated deal all across the board in our country, that they could tax the shit out of us, make their own money still, and it would still be cheaper than it is right now on the street. They could regulate it better - In Amsterdam you have to be 18 to smoke bud in a coffeeshop - my wife forgot her ID card when we went into our first shop, and they turned her away. They let her order a fuckin beer, but she couldnt buy or smoke any nuggets until she got her ID card. Fuckin wicked.

Here, it dont matter if your 10, people will still sell it to you cuz its fuckin ILLEGAL, and people will get into just as much trouble selling it to a minor than they would selling it to a 30 yr old. Its fuckin crazy man. I really could go on forever about all this shit man, but i aint trying to stand on no soapbox n preach the martyrs speech or anything like that. I just want every stoner in America to visit amsterdam at least once. Maybe then it would get all of us together and cause us all to be more vocal and proactive, n fuckin actually get off of our asses and DO something about our problem, instead of subscribing to NORML newsletter, n thinking that your doing your part by doin that alone.

Bah, like i said, i could go on forever man. JUST GO GUYS. Its something you have to see for yourselves to get the full picture.

man sounds so good. ive heard of a wicked sick theatre in amsterdam also.

im deffinantly going to amsterdam within the next 6 years of my college life in europe!

I am visiting england in like 3 weeks... It depends on how much it costs to get to the Netherlands, but I am going to look into going to A-dam. Everyone says I am stupid if I don't check it out. I just don't know if I am with the right crowd. Only one other ganja smoker will be in my group. A few other may try since it is legal and all, but I think I will just go with my stoner budds next year, or plan a road trip to vancouver.
They still have coffee shops in "Vansterdam?"

i heard you dawg, amsterdam is where its at

U mean BC? yeah i think they do, ive never been there, but i hear its cool as fuck. N as far as waiting to go with your stoner friends, do whatever u feel will be more fun for you, but im tellin u man, it wont really matter. All u need is at least one buddy that smokes, thats it. Let the rest of your group go fuck their brains out or go to a shitload of nightclubs or somethin like that - hell you can do all of that too, just on your walk towards the red light district, stop into a coffeeshop or two, buy a couple prerolled spliffies n smoke on your way there. Most people that have the chance to go but then end up waiting for another oppurtunity usually never end up goin man. Grab it while u have the chance. Just use Madam Teussaus Wax Museum as a selling point when your trying to convince your friends to come wth you...
