Day 1: Arrival in Paris followed by a train ride 2 hours after arrival to Lille France
Hey ACD'ers!
So i'm happy to say everything has gone super smooth so far! My family drove me down to Logan Airport in Boston yesterday and I caught the plane at 5:00 via Air France.
The only thing I forgot to pack was my flash drive so all in all didn't end up to bad. Had a really really smooth flight, I was the isle seat on a middle row of 4 and not a single person was in any of the seats! I managed to stretch my body across the seats in a somewhat uncomfortable but more so appealing form then sitting straight up. We arrived in Paris about 45 minutes before we were supposed to which kind of sucked because I had to wait till 8:25am and we arrived at 5:51am. Waited for the ticket area to open up at 6:00 and just propped down and rested my back against my bag, never can pass up the opportunity to take a break and sit and give your back a rest! Got my Eurail pass stamped and activated and got my ticket for the train from Charles De Gaulle to Lille.
Caught the train and took a quick snooze because I was so exhausted, arrived about 40 minutes later and to my delight my pal Tom was there as planned and nothing went wrong! Perfect! This trip is starting out great! Tom and I grab a bus ticket and go to the stop. We start shootin' the shit and whatdya know! already talking about bud, he tells me were gonna smoke a j when we get back to his flat
Sounds good to me! We go back to his place and he rolls up two spliffs, i'm not a normal spliff smoker I always go pure but when traveling I make exceptions based upon my accommodations and the hospitality was more then welcomed
So we smoke the spliffs and to be honest I hardly got high, i'm used to bong rips... this just isn't the same! Not to worry I will be in Amsterdam in 7 days so no complaints on this end. Anyway we went to the grocery store and stocked up on munchies and goodies and let me tell you I LOVE DIFFERENT! the smells the different products everything! This is why I love traveling! We head back to his spot and I meet some of his friends who live in the same apartment building. I end up taking a nap for 3-4 hours to recover after the rough night of sleep on the flight and then wake up at around 4pm. I decide to clean Tom's "petit" abode which is what we in the U.S would consider a single person dorm. But nonetheless his hospitality is most welcomed and he has informed me that I will be sleeping on the bed and he will be sleeping at his house down the street where his family lives, Score! I thought I was gonna be left on the floor! Anyway he tells me that his buddy got some "Amnesia" and I say "I WANT SOME!" this is my all time favorite strain after all... so many epic Amsterdam memories with the Amnesia which contradicts the name but you get what I mean... Anyway went down through the apartment building and to a different area and met up with his buddy who had some local home grown which I smelled and took a look at, was 8 Euro a Gram and then he handed me the bag of Amnesia and I put my face in it and it immediately triggered so many memories! the smell the crystals the holy grail of my weed samplings that I have only been able to find in Europe!
Talk about a good first day to a 2 month long trip! 10 euro a g and worth every cent! I was expressing to the friend and dealer and he said he went to San Fran and he never saw any either, can anyone tell me why I know not a single person nor have I ever sampled Amnesia in the States? USBL you ever give it a try and grow this baby cuz the high is amazing! Anyway heres a pic! Now i'm about to drink a little wine and go out with Tom and my new French friends! This trip is already turning out to be the best time of my life! By the way the Amnesia is fucking powerful! Equal grade as the shit i've smoked in the Dam! I rolled a whole pure j and all the boys were gasping in awe because they never smoke all pure! haha only two of them had the gut to smoke it with me but we got toasted! I'm experiencing awesome body highs and head high although I will admit this Haze does give you a little anxiety! Anyway i'm bout to guzzle down some wine!
