Well we made it, landed yesterday morning,first stop rokerij at the top of singel for a gram of white shark. Awsome smoke, had us battered for hours, and just for 7.50e. We are staying at rookies and in all a real good hotel,nice and clean and the beds get changed every day.This morning went on the prowl for new coffeeshops not yet visited and found mellow yellow, cool shop then het ballonette nice friendly shop,but a bit of a trek to find. Then on to stix and we tried some of their royal stix good nice stone on that one. At the moment we are in softland on spui trying out their white smurf excellent smoke, got to go for now see you later. :D :D :D :D

Wow, you guys are busy. What do think of the Rookie's hotel? I know this might sound like an odd question, but do they have non smoking rooms? I'm thinking of my wife.

Sorry for not getting back earlier, but you know how it is, a bit too stoned to go on line.
AMSTERDAM IS STILL AMAZING.
The weather was fine, overcast and sunny everyday, we had heavy rain one night as we smoked our last joint of the night, however, we were in rookies coffeshop at the time. We felt smug, just a small step and were we were in our hotel & dry.
Rookies hotel was well worth the money. The room was really nice, we were in room 24, first floor at the back of the hotel with a large window overlooking the terrace. Clean bedding and towels daily. ( My lady worried abuot the window in the bathroom though, the window was frosted but nothing else covered it and it was a big wiondow, she thought people would be looking :lol: ) The breakfast was good the staff friendly and the location you couldn't fault. We found the best and cheapest food in the few streets around rookies.
A good time was had. :lol: :lol:

Glad to see y'all made it safely, that White Shark will kick your butt!! I know, still have some as well from Rokerij lol

I've never stayed at Rookies but Blueberry did and said good things about it. I do know there's a good pizza place around the corner from it. Shoot, there's LOTS of them around it lol... think they're on to us and our munchies???? :wink:

White Smurf is a good value at 5 for 25 and was a good smoke as well. Not the strongest, not the weakest, and well worth the price when I've payed more for less. Have fun wish I was back there waaaaah lol
