nice reporting so far, thanks for making the effort to write it up.
Re: Lazerbeam`s 3 Day Trip Feb 2011
Saturday February 12th 7pm
I put on my IPod jeans, trainers and jacket and head out in a hurry. My plan is to head straight past 420, across the damrak, to the neiumarket and up onto kloverhensheadburgervan road or whatever the fuck it`s called, and upto basjoe`s
Realise that I had been here before, but didn`t know what it was called. Kinda like the no-nonsense interior. Bud tender dude was quiet, but happy to show me the weeds.
I check out various strains, basjoe special being one of them. Nothing jumps out at me but I am determined to buy and opt for the AK47 at a bargain 9 Euro think this was good but to be honest, I had smoked a lot and it was getting difficult to distinguish what the weeds were doing. They are all good!
I chill in the seats by the window with another can of coke and some commercial reggae playing. Not staying for long I build one for the road and head out for a stroll.
Amsterdam seems much busier tonight. Lots of groups of pissed lads (British) being quite annoying. I notice lots of mediterranenean looking or arab-looking guys being really disgusting in the streets - pissing in front of kamers, jumping up to the girls on the main street by the bulldog, just being horrible.
I decide to buy more weed.
I go into Stones cafe and get some NYCD for 12 Euro. It was shite. If I got this back home, i`d be phoning the dude back complaning. Unfortunately, i didn`t smoke any in the cafe, or if I did, I didn`t notice straight away. i asked the guy for a bong but no joy. I head out.
I go into Stones bar and have a couple of beers. Talk to a couple of french girls who are with a guy and share some AK47 with them. Only one girl accepts the spliff I offer. strange french people.
A few minutes later the other girl asks me what weed it is as her friend is in stitches laughing. I tell them it`s the Ak47 and show them on the ACD map where I got it.
Big bouncer bruiser Dutch dude comes over and snatches my map.
`What`s this?` the troll grunts.
`It`s a map.` I inform him.
He scumples up the map and gestures to throw it to the ground.
Still perched on my stool, I take the map back and raise my voice slightly and start ranting at this 6ft 2 20 stone skinhead brute about how I have just been in Stones and got some NYCD and if I want a map to find my way around the city, I can bloody well have one. Or words to that affect.
`You don`t need no map` the inbred fool tells me before walking off shaking his head.
Fool.
Funny how the french guys did nothing. Nothing changes there then.
I ignore the bouncer and enjoy my drink. Too stoned to care.
before finishing up and heading out the backdoor, past the cheap whores upto Rustland.
This place is well cool.
As I go in, I spot a young filly by the door and a big old black guy at the next table. I pause and look around. Stunning interior on this place. Kinda had moroccon feel to it. I notice the stairs and head up.
I order a shake and wait a while. Happy to finally get my shake, I head to go and sit in between the sweet looking girl and the big black dude. Just as I ready myself to negotiate the steps, I hear the bell above the door signalling someone leaving. It was the pretty girl, not the old dude. I notice another room to my left with a glass door. Reminded me of the hideous smoking rooms in far-eastern coffee shops only minus the putrid cigarrette smoke. What is more I notice three girls and a guy. I head in and sit in the middle of the couple on my right and the three funky young Italian girls to my left.
One girl looks enviousky at my shake as I notice the other girls cool lop-sided, cropped bob with a high fringe. Uber-kool italian girls.Lovely.
I build a mother of a joint in seconds with the iceolator that I had raved to them about, using some broken italiano. The girl sat next to me tells her friend what it is `Iiis thee IcecolAtoro!`
`Si. Bravo.` i might have said.
In my stoned stumber I am incapable of doing much more than just passing them the joint and nodding approvingly in their direction.
I look away, so as not to watch them smoking. I don`t want to make them nervous as I think all 3 of `em are about an 8 or a 9! I`m playing it cool Trigger.
The doobrie comes back in no time and I continue to try to look cool.
I ask them where they are from.
`Brescia!` One replies.
`Oh, in the north. Baggio played there. Roberto Baggio?`
They all look blank. I think that they are probably too young to remember him or that Baggio didn`t play for Brescia at all, and that my mind is just making random stuff up, but then one nods...
`Si! Baggio!`
Think that was pretty much it. Tumbleweed blew by and the girls were gone soon later. Just before though the couple had left and the guy left me with his grinder. I banged it on the table and got some nice crystals out of it. He looked at me and I could see he was wishing he had done that.
Left alone on my tod, i decide to leave this cool shop behind me and head for a mid-night score at Greenhouse effect....

Sadly, many a euro will be wasted on over-zealous enthusiasm. Thankfully many hours of research on here will at least stear me to the right places.
what is the best cheaper weed you sampled on the trip?
What is the best premium weed you sampled?
Same for hash.....?
peace bro
Re: Lazerbeam`s 3 Day Trip Feb 2011
So I head over to greenhouse effect, which I have visited many times before and always had good weed whenever I`ve been. There are only a few people left in here and the bud-tender informs me he is closing in ten minutes. I choose the Lemon Haze at 20 euro for 1.6 grams i purchase my weed and turn around. I spot a bag of weed on the floor, in front of a sofa that is opposite the counter.
There is a young bald guy sat on the couch but I go over anyway and sit on the other end of the sofa whilst putting my foot on the bag. I feel a bit shady and remove my foot so it is next to the bag. Nealy as soon as I do this, a young guy comes in saying he has lost some weed and was sitting on the couch. The bud tender sees the bag next to mu foot and the guy picks it up. I roll one for the road and head out just as another group come in. the bud tender turns them away and I was to be their last customer of the day. After a walk and some munchies I head back to the Avenue hotel and smoke up some of my stash before having a walk around the dam at silly o`clock to check the Singel action.
Sunday. last day
Despite really enjoying the brekkie the day before, I oversleep on Sunday and don`t wake until after 11a.m. I have an hour to tidy up and pack. I count 13 empty bags and throw them, but forget to uncover the firre alarm in the room.
As my flight isn`t until around 9pm, I have the entire day to toke so i check out and leave my luggage at the hotel and head out to Bluebird Again, another fave shop of mine. i like to smoke here but not necessarily to buy from here.
I purchase Nepali Creme 12.50 gram bloody expensive! and a gram of pollen for the more reasonable 9 euro. Both were nice but I preferred the nepali. Bluebird had some Vapes but you had to leave a deposit before using it. I couldn`t be arsed with that and smoked a couple of Haze joints with hash and then head over to Grey Area to purchase the best weed of the trip; Grey Haze 1g for 13 euro the guy in here was a really friendly and helpful american guy who showed me plenty of weeds. the crystals on the haze were amazing and they had just had it in. This was the best bud of the trip by far.
I pick up my bags, sort the post, but some presents and decide to go back to where I started for one last smoke.
5 pm voyagers
Really like this place. Matey from manchester shows me some nice buds and I opt for a gram ofchocolope i unload my laden luggage onto the counter and roll up a half of the chocolope. It was not as sweet as what i had tried on my previous trip but still a good weed.
I struggle to toke my joint but roll one for the airport anyway. A group of about 12 Irish 20-somethings are sitting in silence (a first for a group of irish) and I say my goodbyes to highklyblessed.
Get to Schipol, finish my Chocolope outside the airport standing near another guy smoking a lollipop stick looking at my fat joint with envy and then have a couple of pints in Murphys before flying back.
Top trip. Too much weed smoked. Sorry for finishing the story in a hurry and thanks a lot for reading.
Highlight - Grey Haze from Grey Area
Ice-Potion from Amnesia
and Voyagers coffeeshop.

Was this your artist friend from Amnesia?

Seems like a nice enough guy. I like his book of drawings from everyone.

That looks like the chap. Quite a harmless eccentric, if you ask me.
His books are worth having a look through.
