DAY ONE: Jan 25, 2007

[BennyBlanco]

this is long over due...

Our Journey to Amsterdam started January 24th, 2007 from JFK. Not much to report on the flight except that KLM really packs them in. The seats were small and might I say sorta uncomfortable. But they did show the movie 'THE QUEEN' and it was okay. Great in the beginning but slowly I found myself Sleeping. Our Plane was a head of schedule and we ended up landing an hour earlier then expected. I must say A-Dam at 7 am is really DARK. We decided instead of taking the train we would take a cab. Holy Sh*t that was expensive, I mean we knew it was going to be but 53 Euro's. That surely left a mark or should I say DENT in the drug Fund.

We finally arrived at our hotel, ' Delta Hotel' that was located in a prime location. Right smack dab in the middle of the Damrak! I mean you really couldn't have asked for a better location. Now we ( my girlfriend, and our best friend) have all read up on this hotel and it was a hit or a miss. But quit honestly this hotel was might I say AMAZING for the price. Plus lets be real, to those who bitched bout the accommodations', This is what you pay for and on top of that. It's a place TO REST YOUR HEAD! But we all wished there was an easier way to take a shower! CURTAIN PLEASE! *LOL* But that's Europe for you. We dropped our bags off and headed off for our first taste of life in Amsterdam.

Our first stop was, ' The Grasshopper ' Now I know what you all are saying, " TOURIST" but it was the only steps away from our hotel and all Three of us wanted to get the party started. I mean hell we were on vacation. We started off with 1.7 Purple Sensi for 15 Euro. It wasn't to bad, I mean some of the shit we smoke here in the states isn't as good as the stuff we tasted the first day. The Grasshopper had a great vibe but then again it was empty. The Bartender mad us feel uncomfortable and kept stairing us down. (bitch) And the Bud tender seemed a bit unfriendly and needless to say that was our first time and last time we would ever step in there.

We attempted to go to 420 cafe but that had been closed so we decided that we would be the tourist and get all that crap out of the way. We went off to the Anne Frank house, no lines and we went straight in( not to mention it was 9am) After that we had some time to kill before we checked in, So it was off to Amnesia. Everyone was really looking forward to trying this place out. We had all heard about it from friends, friends of friends, and of course the board. The atmosphere was amazing and the lounge feel was definitely something to write home about. We place our order. 1 gram of NYC Desiel @ 10 Euro and 1 gram of Laughing Buddha @ 11 Euro. The Laughing buddha was one of the highlights of our trip (literally). After some coffee's and tea a whole crew of americans came in and started to rearrange the place ( Fuck the REDSOX *lol*) and so we left. We wondered around the streets doing the typical sight seeing and dodging bikes. I wanted to make a stop over at Grey Area but they were all out of the Cup winner so we settled for 2g of C-13 @ 30 Euro and 3g of Grey Crystals @ 15 Euro a Gram. Kinda bummed with that we ended up taking our stash to 420 which was finally open. Another great shop which became our base of operations . We purchase Neville haze at 12 euro a gram. Now this was our top smoke of the week with lots of flavor and a smooth intake this was it the one product we would be purchasing for most of our journey.

Now this is where our notes get scrambled and most of you know and if you don't. Well try the Neville and you'll know why! We finally checked into our hotel around 13:00. We washed up rolled a Fat one ( by the way we brought dutch masters and backwoods blunts) And this is where the ladies ( god help me) wanted to go shop. So we strolled through Nieuwendijk and searched and searched and searched for absolutely nothing and nike's. After about a couple hours of this we went back to the hotel and smoked up and crashed out. Woke up about 20:00 and headed to the RLD for food, Fun, and yeaaaahhh more smoke! Found a nice little place on Warmoes to eat... Now you might be asking what was it called.. Like I said read the beginning sentence of this paragraph. EVERYTHING IS SCRAMBLED -hahahaha- Not once did we feel uncomfortable or that we were in danger nor did we ever get lost. Needless to say I'm from NYC and if I felt like that then I don't belong here either. -ha- But we took a stroll up and down the canals of the RLD being asked about Charlie and if we wanted Free Sex by sketchy old men. We finally ended up by bulldog we stopped in to rest our feet but found that we were to happy with the atmosphere. So we ended up leaving and headed off to the bluebird. Now this place has been highly recommended by alot of people that we know and I must say I'd recommend it too. Besides the Killer Stairs from Hell ( Don't be to fucked up and attempt to walk down talk about an 80 degree angle) we got lucky and scored a spot on the couch. Did a vapor of Bubble-Gum and smoked some hash. We finished that all off with some space cakes. And My GF totally felt it as she slipped in a coma once we got back to the hotel. She was out COLD! While Myself and our close watched Rocky 5 and Naughty Commercials with juggling boobs. We finally crashed out and that was the end of our day 1


PS our friend took detailed notes of what we smoked and shit like that that will be at the end of our last day... the tally if you will

Thank you for thr report we will be there march 24. I hope I have not got my passport yet gf got hers today. I have been not allowed to leave before. But all that was over I thought and hope it is its what I did for the US. One place asked about my service record and got a visit from the FBI. Needless to say I wish now I would not have been the hot shot and played the game stupid. Damit my fucking goverment might be fucking me again. The worse part is I can never tell a soul why?
