Amsterdam Coffeeshop Directory Forums

Well, just in case, I'm making sure I get my first trip to Amsterdam in before the end of the year! I will be coming for 10-17 days in December. 33/m from the Tampa Bay area in Florida. I am looking for insights, advice, recommendations, and if anyone will be there at the same time, kind folks to hang out with!

My interests are hockey, poker, nature (I LOVE National Parks!), travel, and especially music! My favorite bands are the Grateful Dead, Phish, and Gov't Mule, but I have an extremely wide range of musical tastes.

I have an email out to apartmentpaul, but if you have any recommendations regarding affordable vacation apartments, please let me know!

FL has GREAT state parks too! I HIGHLY recommend a trip to big lagoon state park. nice wide open smoking areas!

As for Amsterdam...congrats on your choice of travel! and get the super silver haze!

Welcome to the forum.

When you have firm dates for your trip, get them to me.
I will post you on the Whos In Town page.
You can see who else may be in town and any Toke & Talks that are planned.

First timers get my S G Collins recommendation
I think a read of this will maximize your efficiency once you get there.

How not to get hit by a bike and other stuff they forgot to tell you about Amsterdam.

As BeachBud has found out. It is a very compact city.

Hey whats up nice to see another FL person on here.. I'm from WPB and going Nov 17 to Dec 1.. so looks like were gonna have diffent dates.. but ither way enjoy!

Welcome to the forum. You picked the right place to get your info on Amsterdam. Someone already listed 'How Not to Get Hit by Bicycles...', which contains some great, humorous insights. You might want to pick up the book 'The Undutchables', which is loaded with amusing tips on everything in the Netherlands from the Dutch people, food, history, coffeeshops and much more.

Have a blast in A'dam and watch out for the dog poop!

You have been posted on the December Whos In Town page.

You can see who else may be in town during your stay.

Watch for Toke & Talks, I post them up to the last minute.
Or post one of your own. All I need is a date, time, and coffeeshop to post it.

By default I link your posting to your profile page here on ACD.

https://www.coffeeshopdirect.com/forum/membe ... le&u=69949

I can change it to a web link ( myspace, facebook, personal page )
or an email address if you want.

You can do a little practice shopping on the Coffeeshop Menus page.
Any with arrows are less than six months old.

Hey! Yeah, I saw your thread and was going to see if you wanted to share an apartment... then I saw it was a few months old and you had already made your plans.

The only state to charge marijuana possession as a felony, must be hell.
Either way, welcome to the boards.

Wrong. 20g or less misdemeanor = max 1 year/max $1,000 fine. NOT even mandatory minimum sentence which only applies to traffic/cultivate.

Wouldn't trade that for California DMV/car "rules" FL? Drive to tax collector, pay. Leave. No BS. Great home grown environment. All around cheap therefore luxurious place to be. Gulf panhandle coastline is as nice as the bahamas IMO.

Who gets busted? Street shit? Fuck that... its a social world chill and smoke one with someone! Just because Cali is right about cannabis doesnt mean it is on everything! Just my thoughts and experiences of FL. Oh and its hard to get good consistant smoke in many spots.
