The Annual Four-Twenty Gathering - 20th April 2017

[OneHighMofo]

Unless a place is absolutely terrible it's likely a venue visit will last at least an hour if only a couple people visit the bud tender; so waypoints are deffo logical markers. Maybe post a start middle and end of a proposed tour?

If I'm with a group i'll make a point of live posting the whereabouts in this thread so long as my battery and ever-dwindling mental capacity allows - i did promise myself I'd do exactly that last year and promptly didn't because Cannabinoids.

Cannabinoids
Roll on 420

My main objective is to get as many pictures of coffeeshops as possible. It's not necessarily to spend time in all of these shops.

Really hoping i can manage to get sorted early enough on the 18th for this trek.... I'm always up for a photo-op stroll... I shall be packing a couple of cameras anyway, so i'll be snapping everything, as usual... Never been that far east either, so it's all new to me... Always meant to start my own CS exterior collection... Shame i didn't start sooner, especially with all the closures.... Anyway, if i manage to check into my hotel before 12-ish, i'm definitely going to try and make it.

Thinking about 19th crawl .For one it will be early for some ,but really if there by noon you should make crawl
Those on bikes can see a lot to west BaBa ,Bronx ,walkers not so much. I,m afraid after Lems east crawl day before it will be like last year and some will come up lame
So we will go live at 137 and post route or routes west.
The possibilities are endless ,head Bba , catch 33 or back up Haarlestrait Dampkin2,Siberie Amniesia ,grey area
Could go down prinsengraght to spirit ,supermarket on and on.
I,m looking at map and think all roads lead to Paradox and Lem loves the place and may be up by then
So that being said I propose 230 paradox Tand T gives walkers who would like to go way west time to get there.
People can live post location moves till then.
I think after at three we walk down to Cafe Chris oldest in Jorden 1600 something it was built very cool place ,beer and bitten balls .Those not intested there's lots of shops between Paradox andTertulia where I propose T and T at 420
Then we go live again from there possiblties are endless ,if I have energy I would like to get to easy time then Rookies for six.
But since where herding cats who knows.

Hey lad's, iv been in Amsterdam over 40 times now, but never solo. Im planning to do a solo trip this year around April 20th, if im over at this time any chance of tagging along on one of these crawl's one day?

Nice one mate, thanks

[Lemming]

@macky - brilliant! Lots of great suggestions there. All but one of those shops is roughly between 137 and De Klos on Kerkstraat. The only exception is Baba. That's off to the north and really an expedition in its own right.

Paradox around 2pm sounds perfect. It's about halfway between 137 and de Klos and, as you say, I should be up by then! Love to join you for a beer at Café Chris too. Is it weed-friendly?

Tertulia at 4.20 also sounds like fun. Maybe an alternative to de Klos for vegetarians and any overflow that won't fit into Klos.

Rookies at 6 could replace Utopia at 7 if you like. It's closer to Klos so good place to try to reunite 2 herds of cats.

Anyway, I guess we should leave some slots free for other's proposals. There's an obvious district we haven't included yet in all this east and west stuff. Probably become traditional by now. Saturday?

@Fife_bluntman - I'll put you on the list. Everyone had a first time once.

At the other end of that scale, Lafe is on the list and he was at our very first Gathering in 2006

@tinky - be great if you do get in a day early

@KeyMonCha - hopefully you'll manage to catch up with us.

[macky]

Ya! Nothing written in stone
There's long wooden benchs on both sides of Cafe outside.
Think you mentioned Elertic lady land close Lem from Paradox check it out on way to Tertiula.
There no reason we could not turn towards Dijp after 420,work are way out and tram it back.
Options got any speak up fellas

[Lemming]

We went to Electric Ladyland back in 2013 but I'm up for going again if people fancy it.

Hmmm.... Anyone been to Papillon recently?

[macky]

Well I think all we will know is 137 at 11am ,Mikes in Spiders going out
The plan can be finalized for the 19th at Batavia on the 18th.
Got some places you think we have to get too ,fire away

[Devore]

How do you dudes know who are ACDers? Do we all give off that vibe or wear giant ACD badges?

[matty223]
