From t'Nes - Rookies, google maps tells me 18 minutes. I think you could do it in less.

And if your worried about it taking to long, or are to stoned or lazy to walk, you can always jump on the tram

.
I would say from Central station to Mellow Yellow would take no more than a 25 minute walk, at a nice brisk pace

Gotta agree with RR... Took us over an hour from Dam Sq to Rookies last trip.
Note to self...... Don't follow the wrong tram lines......

You dudes must walk slooowww
I do walk kinda quick, but when I stayed at the rookies, I would make it from there, to the Harlemerstraat area, following one of the canals, in about 20 minutes.
It took me less than 20 to get from GreenPlace to Mellow yellow
and less than 5 to get from Barney's Lounge to Mellow Yellow

Ok, this is something I've wanted to ask for awhile.
How are you able to avoid going ass first into a canal/wall/bush/et cetera when riding a bike after you've gotten very, very stoned?

Not sure, I usually keep my eyes shut when I'm high and riding a bike.

Walked from Centraal Station to the Marriott Hotel just across the canal from Liedseplein, about a 30 minute half walk/half stroll covering about 2.5km. So from the Dam, maybe 15-20 minutes, depending on how you feel.
Peace.

I was surprised how easy the route was once i learned the quickest way. Simply walk down from Cental Station, turn right
here and keep walking straight. Done!
I have made the walk from Leidseplein to my hotel (Greenhouse Effect) at the top of Warmoesstraat in 25 mins before. That was at 6am after a club too

(nice and peaceful though!)
