Arrived in the glorious Dam
Re: Arrived in the glorious Dam
Lovin' the travel updates. So how far is Paradox from where you are staying? Are you finding places closer than what you thought? I'm gonna be there in less than two weeks and super excited
How's the weather?

Re: Arrived in the glorious Dam
Today was a small shop crawl in the wind and rain... I refused to let it dampen my spirits. We plowed ahead even after the wind blew my umbrella wrong side out!
We started out at my favorite neighborhood CS Siberie, yet another helpful lady budtender. First visit brunette, 2nd visit a redhead, this afternoon a blonde. All very nice helpful, lady budtenders here. Great mellow laid back shop, with reggae/ rock music. Very nice decor inside, kept nice and tidy. My favorite shop by far out of all so far simply for the atmosphere and nice ladies. Very good lattes here too. Purchased a 1g lemon haze and 1g cheese. Had a smoke and a latte. Took a nice break from the wind and rain here...they treat you nice and it is a very chill atmosphere.. dig it lots. Still plan to have bday there Thursday at 7pm
We went to Paradox for more cakes, we are down several canals from there. Had banana/blackberry shake, bought a gram of "cannalope" and it would not stay lit. Smelled, looked, tasted nice but burn it would not. I think its damp? We like this shop and laid back atmosphere. The budtender makes good shakes, hes nice, helpful and he reminds me of a surfer/beach guy in appearance.
Buy & fly @ Grey Area - Silver Bubble, Chocolope, & LA Woman
Amnesia Coffeeshop - Pink Kush, Alcapulco Gold & Melana < (not sure of spelling) cream hash that is good but expensive at 16E for 1G Ate a whole space cake each, smoked a joint each of pink, gold and a bowl of melana<? cream hash. I got the giggles here so bad so the combo of this must have worked. I laughed until I cried and felt very giddy. I will do a more in depth report later but I did like all the stuff we purchased here altho its a bit high priced. It is a very nice shop, I love purple and everything here is purple with cool wall paper designs. Very neat and tidy with a nice clean bathroom. Nice mellow chill atmosphere to smoke. We had a good time here and recommend the shop and smoke!
420 Cafe - 420 Haze 1g and 1g blueberry - really like the atmosphere here, its chill with real good music, we heard Hendrix, Beatles. Smoked a joint of each kind and hung out. This CS looks like a pub/bar inside, its quite nice and a very good size. Nice budtender here, friendly service. Laid back place. Very clean and maintained. We recommend! Cool to chill here 2 thumbs up!
Right across the alley from 420 is a great little shop where we picked up very good sandwiches, and apple pie to take home for dinner. Highly recommend this place for food, cakes, treats!
We still prefer the 12E chocolope from Bulldog near Siberie over any we tried so far. We walked home in the driving wind and rain and had a little bit of a smoke off. Enjoying our evening. Maybe it won't rain so much tomorrow. Either way any day in the Dam is a beautiful day rain or shine!
Night friends, peace...

Re: Arrived in the glorious Dam
Ah, 2rolling, I miss you already!
This is one cool lady, everyone. And, she and her Mr can smoke! (Did you say that he is BluesMan on here?)
I didn't buy any weed at Paradox, but I have to share the love and tell you about the "Wash" (Moroccan Wash) Hash there. It is awesome, and a phenomenal deal at 12e/.8g. They have a 5E deal on it too. Strong! Stoney! The only hash that came close to the temple ball from Solo and yours from Siberie, but you'll like the difference in effect- calmer, more grounded. Great flavor. Really the complete deal. (Thanks SS'67 for the heads-up there!)
And, if you have a chance to get to Solo and Bluebird- both just a few blocks east of Basjoe'e/Voyagers axis. Solo has nice chocolope (10e/g) there, and are known for their hashes. That's where my temple ball came from.
Bluebird has AMAZING candy kush, that despite it's name is not sweet, and is a great great kush. Their Blue Cheese looked great and smelled better, although I didn't have time to smoke it, and their Super Silver Haze was amazing. They do some food, including what looked like great crepes- also fresh juice. (Thanks Luv and USBL for the heads up on that place!)
Again, Happy Happy Birthday!

Re: Arrived in the glorious Dam
Tell James that Amy says she misses him already, please. Have a great time.
I think I'll just keep calling Bluesman your Mr
He's a great guy. Tell him I said hi too, and if you ever find yourself in my neck of the woods give me a shout, we'll extend some hospitality.
And, once you're at basjoe's you're only 5 blocks to Bluebird (tweet tweet). Seriously, you two will love that place. It's your vibe and the bud is tippy top. It's also right near all the trams and the metro, so you can be back at the centrum in a hop skip.
I will check out Siberie next trip. You totally sold me on that place!

Re: Arrived in the glorious Dam
Silverbubble from Grey Area really quite good! We both have a great buzz!
Stopped in Kadinsky for Caramello Hash, Dr. Grinspoon, & Blueberry Cheese Buy & Fly! Just smoked the Grinspoon/ pretty damned good buzz, seems to keep creeping.
On to the most relaxing shop with the coolest people and atmosphere Basjoe!
1g OG13 - FANTASTIC smoke - great buzz. 1g Bas Special & 1g cheese < tastes great, smells incredible great buzz. The OG13 is so good we bought another 1g to take with us!
Very good fresh squeezed orange juice, several latte's, and a few hours spent here made for a great afternoon. We were stoned to the friggin' bone plus sharing a pipe of caramello hash. Buzzed. Giggly, relaxed, great atmosphere.
The wonderful James gave me a lovely Amnesia Haze bud for my birthday
Gonna try it out here in a little while
Picked up dinner and brought it back to our apartment. Time to relax, take a bath in the huge tub and enjoy my evening smoke out with Bluesman.
Ah, this is THE LIFE! Lovin' the Dam!
peace xo

Re: Arrived in the glorious Dam
It is so good we stopped in the same place again across from 420 for dinner and dessert to bring home. Tasty tasty food here!
Gonna smoke the birthday amnesia gift from James after dinner. For now working on a big delicious bud of blueberry cheese
An appetizer before dinner, we both just ate a space cake each. Bring on the buzz we are ready 
Siberie is very mellow, laid back, decorated nicely. It is a great atmosphere and cool lady bud tenders! Gonna be there for my bday tomorrow @ 7 so anyone in the area stop by!

You sound as though you are having a fantastic time, and it really comes across in your report.
I doubt I could keep up with you though!
