happydaze777: I had written off Samementereng as a novelty. I am glad to hear there's something to it.
One more thing: I always feel obligated to de-bunk the concept of bag appeal. Appearance is a poor indication of quality, I say. Props to you for recommending smoke that happened to be old and twiggy. Hell, the best weed I have in the cupboard at the moment happens to be old, dry and twiggy. Twiggy outdoor weed rawks.
puffpuffgive, westerkerk: I hate to make promises that I might not keep, but I will visit De Graal in February. Too many people rave about this place. On top of that, De Graal offers Shaman (or at least they did, if a recent menu is anything to go by). Okay, so now you know a lot about me. I like the Great Outdoors :)
Cal X: Excellent reportage. (Thanks!) I would like to visit Yo-Yo; it's been closed whenever I've passed by on previous trips. As for Papillon, Chapiteau and Kashmir, I've already been there – and they are definitely places to consider. More people would visit Paps and Chaps if they knew what they were missing.
Lafe: People love Het Ballontje. I need to fight the urge to go somewhere off the map and just go there.
Your afternoon sounds very nice, BTW. You could sell pot to potheads :) Rough Guides should take you on.
