Thanks for the replies people.

Don't think you bought as much hash as usual ?

Nar usual amount, usually between 5-10 types. Maybe you just remember that Habibi pic lots of times I did really enjoy the hash this trip and will pig out on it on my next trip.

I've added kashmir, De Klos and Arkwrights to my list for my next trip!

De Klos's meats are amazing, the sides arent up to much but the meat is A+. Im talking about the Kashmir Lounge bar not the CS which across the road. I cant vouch for Arkwrights prices, have a feeling they’re quite high, as I didn’t buy anything but if your craving a British product its the place to go or this place near hotel Abba http://www.britishstore.nl/

On the downside, this page crashed my browser.

It crashed mine numerous times when i was trying to post the pics.

how was the apartment ? Ive booked this place for my for my trip with a mate in march for 4 nights and for the price looked good value. Im sure its the same place as on the booking details from amsterdamstay. We're to go to arkwrights to pick up the keys. Im not expecting the ritz as long as its clean, warm and comfy enough for a late evening smoke and enough of a kitchen area to knock up some brekkie out il be happy as larry. Any info be most welcome

Twice it killed my processor... Well worth it though. I love a good pics thread. Thanks.

Great report, amazing photos especially the graffiti ones.

If at customs they stop to search your bag, would they take all those empty baggies you had your weed in?

For E100 per night its good. The people were really nice, its budget but clean, warm when you put the two heaters on and fairly comfy - no chairs just beds and 2 stools. We stayed up smoking till 2-3ish every night listening to music and had no problems. There is a crazy Dutch guy underneath but he's harmless and funny when your stoned. There are 4 hobs no oven, fine for a fry up. We were 3 6ft+ boys so the tiny toilet with the steep slant of the roof and the same with the bath/shower were slightly awkward but still OK. Didn’t like that the bath was in a bedroom with carpeted floor. Internet was good, small terrace with seats but it was too cold in Dec. Prepare to hear a lot of bells from the church and the wind if its strong. Best thing is Paradox is 100m from the front door! Have a good trip.

I didn’t bring them back I threw them in the bin. I remember on an early trip one mate took all the bags home no trouble, I don’t really see the point, its asking for trouble.

What a fantastic report. Heading over in 2 weeks and couldnt be more in the mood for it after reading this. Thanks for your effort

[alpen rock]

Pity you couldn't sample the reservaX at Anyday

Its top of my hit list next trip. I will at least remember to ask if they have it in stock.

Nice reporting, always like to read your reports as you tend to hunt out the interesting strains...which is what I try to do.

Would you say that amsterdams diamonds decrease in quality with each trip? It seems to be getting increasingly more difficult to search through all the mediocre shit to find the special bits. There's so much average weed it's almost not worth going as often as I like to, especially with the average price per g.

The intrestings diamonds are indeed harder to find each trip and the prices are going up. I have said a few times dam is full of nice amnesia and cheese and not much else, well this time all the amnesia and cheese were sub par. All the good hazes were SSH sandalwood, but the amnesias were quite lacking. The cheeses I smelt were poor as well. Some of the hashes were top notch and i was really enjoying them. Overall not a great trip for bud, but still a good trip.

Little conclusion to the report(will get a vid done soon):

Top 3 Hasj:
1. Rootang - Anyday/ Gredela - Papilion 2. Zooltjes – Club Media 3. Cream Special - Basjoe
Top 4 Wiet:
1.Pine Appel Haze – GP. 2 Kandy Kush/ Champagne Haze – Club Media 3. SSH - Bij 4. Buddha Tahoe OG -GP

Next trip I will:
Find De Graal for lots of hash & Cafe Lootje for a buttery steak
Go to Papilion earlier to chill and get more of their hash.
Hit Anyday, go through their menu and have a vaporiser session.

See you soon Amsterdam!!
