Nothing special, Canon IXUS 95 IS - 10.0 Mpix, 3 x optical zoom. Does the job.

Reserva X wins hands down. Second is harder bit I'm gonna go with- De Graal's Gardela and their Kashmir, both were top notch. The 1g spliff of the Gardela had my brain high mountaineering, probably my favourite high of the trip. Straight after I smoked the Kashmir and it was lovely and heavy and stoney. Pics to come of both in day 4 which will be up next few days.

Oooh I haven't tried the Kashmir yet, and I'm always looking for the stoney stuff. That Gardela is sooo good.

I'm just back here drooling over the pictures in the report again. :lol: :D You are using a flash for those? Those canon compact cameras are really good, but I think it's your compositional skill that really makes those bud shots.

Yes all with flash, amazing pics can be taken in natural light but its hard in winter and when your high. :D And like i said before only 1/3 pics turns out well when taking the pic stoned. :D Thanks for the compliment, your pics are always amazing. :mrgreen:

The Rootang didn't quite pull me up out of a days smoking like 1000 balloons tied to my head as it did last trip, but it was very nice with a charged high. I would treat it like quaze, smoke it early it the morning, gives an amazing buzz :mrgreen: But i prefer the Reserva and its alot cheaper.

Day 4 up today/2moro

Anyday: forgot to add that when I asked about the Rootang the tender said it was finished, but then said he rememberd he might have some more and went in the back for a few mins, which was nice of him. And he asked it they were my mates waiting outside(which they were) and he said only share the Reserva and the Quaze with them if they were really good friends! When I got outside one of my mates said that a local cycled up to the shop, shouted at them in dutch 'its all gone there is nothing left for you!' ran inside and with 30secs had purchased some weed and was vaporizing it. :)

Day 4

Last day! Shit! Roll and smoke
Image

Jump on the tram to

Hugo De Groot
3.4g Lemon Haze – repeat purchase. Same friendly tender let me pick which bud I wanted (2.4g).
Image
Image

Round the corner to

Paradox
1.8g Finger Hash E24 – The same tender as before said that it was too early to be smoking it. :)
1st type (same as purchase day before)
Image
Image
2nd type (slightly darker)
ImageImage
1.4g Turkish E12 – Quite hard. Didn't get a chance to enjoy it as it was smoked extra fast outside the airport when we were running late.
Image
Image

Saw the same character from the piece in Flevopark
Image

On the tram south to

De Graal – First time here and I loved it. Best mix of music of the trip (mostly not I would put on)
If you buy a fruit juice it is in a glass and it it 100x nicer than looza's. Similar to Club Media its almost more like going to someone’s house than to a shop.
Image
Image
Image

1g Kashmir E17 – Thick heavy smoke, with slightly sweet peppery taste and a high that felt like being covered by a thick heavy blanket of warm stonedness. 9/10
Image
Image
Image
Image

1g Gerdela E15 – Sweetly spicy taste – Great high with a nice simultaneous body stone. 9.5/10
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image


Club Media
1g Champainge Haze – see above – no pic
1g Cannalope Haze
Image
2.5g Zooltjes – see above – no pic

Tram back to Dam Sq then on to

GreenPlace
1g Maxi Mellow E12 -
Image
Image
Image
1g OG Kush E14 repeat purchase– no pic –

Burger Bar
Image

Voyagers
Forgot to mention before that they were playing lots of UK hip hop which was right up my street. Best shop in town.
One mate got on the vaporiser
Image
I rolled 2.4 of LH with a load of finger hash and i think some Zooltjes too.
Image
Image
Image

Day total 15g

Trip total 79.9g

I salute you. That is an impressive smoke list even by hardcore ACD standards. :D

And the pictures, yum! We have a slang word "gleak"- when your salivary glands gush because something looks or smells so good.

That last picture of the Kashmir totally made me gleak.

Many thanks for a super awesome trip report :D
