Dam Veterans - What is your MUST DO?

[Lamont]

Sorry but the best fries are in Belgium. That's why all these places have Belgian names.

I've had the frites in both Bruge and Amsterdam and thought they were actually better in Amsterdam. maybe cause I was stoned?

1 Hire a bike
2 get a FEBO
3 Get lost
4 Sit by a canal
5 Shop the Albert Cuyp straat.
6 Attend the wonderful Art Deco cinema near Rembrandtsplien
7 Window shopping in the '9 streets area'
8 Vondel Park on a hot summers day.
9 smoke it up outside Hill St Blues on Niewmarket on a sunny day. Green House Centrum as a sub.
10 Chat up tourists at the Dampkring.

There are many more for you to make up yourselves.

De kuil for the obvious
Cafe Cuba for a mojito
Thai & Co for a meal
lots of strolling around looking at the scenery
La Grotte for breakfast and a spliff
Melkweg for a dance...although I'm definitely too old for that

[Lamont]

• Smoke that first cone at De Kuil (was my first shop ever)
  Take a long walk through the Jordaan
  Drink a Limonana at Amnesia
  Do a DePijp Coffeeshop crawl (there are so many good ones to choose from)
  Visit the Van Gogh Museum
  Pick up hot chocolate powder from Puccini for the wife
  Visit Grey Area and shop the menu. (If I'm lucky John is there and there's a stool free so I can smoke a few bong loads and chat)
  Stroll through the Begijnhof
  Visit at least one new coffeeshop each time (this time Utopia is definitely on my list)
  Ride bikes through Vondelpark
  Pick up a spacecake at Paradox for the flight home
  Stock up on Stroopwafels
  Walk the canals at night
  ...
  Dream of what it would be like to live in this amazing city

As soon as we step off the train which is always 9am, we run as fast as we can so we can get to Rokerji 2 at the top of Singel so we can sit in the front watchin the world go by while smoking White shark bio, if they have it in.

Another must few coffeeshops are Abraxas, my first ever shop, Green Place for Trainwreck, Rusland, my personal fave for their super polm,Amnesia, so we can watch the prostitutes plying their trade and Amnesia haze and Softland for the biggest cups of tea in the whole world.

As for things to do the Torture museum across from the tulip market is just so sick its awsome, visit the Cuyp Market and take the traditional canal boat around the Dam.

We have spent some of our most special moments in the Dam, I personally would sell body parts to fund a trip to the dam, so if anyone needs anything let me know lol.
