After landing in schipol I made my way to Haarlem to meet the crew in Empire. As you can see things were in full swing. I recall Trading hitting the gravity bong and Ghost was kind enough to lend me his puffco for a dab so I could get right to where I needed to be.
Every time I meet the ACD crew, and I've seshed with ACD'ers in Netherlands, Ireland and Spain, people are always very giving and sharing, so I brought I gram of Piatella from Uncles Farm to share and also for my first dab after travelling
Empire is a good shop with a great menu, will defo visit again, I had the bananaconda flower which was good.
The next morning I shuttled down to Easy Times and took some of their GMO, best weed of the trip by far for value.
After a few smokes in Easy Times I made my way down to Bagheera to meet the crew.
As usual I tried to eat as much as possible from AH as the restaurant prices in Amsterdam are a bit high for me, even Burger King is quite pricey compared to other countries.
We went The Balloon on 19th also, but I have no photos as we were seshing too hard, the hospitality was amazing and I think it's always the most fun event on the schedule!
On 20th in the morning I went to visit TerpsArmy, as I mentioned on the Coffeshop reviews Terps was the first club I joined in Barcelona in January 2018. I was blown away that they were selling US strains like Gorilla Glue, Zombie Kush etc. at reasonable prices and 8 years later they have two shops in Amsterdam and the dominance of Haze crosses in the Dutch market has dwindled. Funny how quick things change.
I also popped by an old favourite of mine, Bluebird for some volcano bags.
The Bulldog was in the 420 spirit and had balloons outside the shop on Leidseplein
I hit the Aran Irish bar beside Vondel for an Irish breakfast as I knew it would be a long day
The Shambalion Sound System had an event in Amsterdam Noord and I headed over there.
Soma from Soma Seeds was there
People from the old Cannabis Liberation Events were also present giving out legalization leaflets
Fudge This gifted some edibles for the ACD crew which I brought to The Stud later.
After I headed to The Stud where the rosin cake of death was unleashed by MJ, sorry about the wierd thing in the middle of the photo, only good photo I had of the cake before it got devoured. After The Stud, we got on a Tram for a stop or two before the conductor kicked us off and kidnapped Lemming, which was hard to process after a day of debauchery. Made my way to Burger King on Leidseplein for a consolation meal.
The next day I met crew in Bagheera before we headed to the sesh at 1e Hulp and Ghost let me use his Puffco again, also used Talkrums and Batradias over the weekend too. Shoutout to them for bringing them.
The last day of my trip I went to Easy Times early and after popped into Tweede Kamer to get some red velvet cakes as its kind of a tradition by now to have some for the flight home.
Also swung by Siberie for the final sesh with the ACD crew.
One eaten upon arrival at the airport, one eaten in departures, one canna caramel from Luvtick mid flight and before I knew it I was back on the metro home.
Big thanks to everyone I met, loved all the great conversation about dabbing, vaping, growing, making edibles, travelling etc. Did a bad job at documenting things, but have a loose thread of a photo timline at least. There's a great community of people here, will try my best to join again next year!
