Trip...30may-2june

Post by Rev »

Where do I begin? At the start I guess, Im pretty wasted, so I've probably missed a few bits out but here goes..

Tuesday 30

Got up, drove to Stansted, smoked a couple of joints in the long stay car park, checked in, flew to Schipol, train to Centraal, you know the score.

We set off in search of the Greenhouse Hotel to check in, god knows how but we walked right past it, and kept going until we saw dam square.. As we were pretty knackered carrying our bags around, we thought it would be rude not to pop into Nes. I bought 3grams of Diesel and a gram (maybe 2?!) of Stella Blue and my mate got a couple of grams of Cherry Bomb, and some pot of Gold.. Rolled up some diesel, very nice as always, not a very potent strain imo, but a nice high, and the taste. Then I rolled some Cherry Bomb up (my mate can't roll for shit!) and we smoked that..really nice, but I think it needed to be ground up a lot more as we had to relight all the time. Stella Blue as per normal is lovely, nice taste and high, one of my favourites. Whilst in Nes I met Dave, had a quick look over the book and chilled for a bit before walking back down to Greenhouse Effect and checking in. Went to the apartment, smoked a few more of the Nes weeds, then wandered around looking for food. Our apartment was right above Hill Street on the Market so we dropped in there, got some Sage and Sour and some Ketama Hash. The S n S was quite nice, diesely with a bit more bite to it, I wasn't overly keen on the hash though, I prefer Ice's and unpressed trichomes to Morroccan so didn't smoke that much of it. Me and my mate were both pretty knackered from travelling, so we passed out fairly early that night.

Wednesday 31

Got up about 12, went to Albert Heijn supermarket, bacon sandwich's and Cherry Bomb to start the day. Wandered to the Cannabis College, checked out the garden and vap'd some Stella and some Cherry bomb, sat and had a few spliffs and started talking to a group of American girls, backpacking and staying in A'dam for a few nights. They wanted to go to Nes so we showed them there and I bought a bit more Stella, smoked a joint or two of that, then got a gram of White Widow ice hash, borrowed a nice glass pipe from behind the counter and we had a few hits..wow proper widow taste (slight chemical/amonia) but really refreshing taste for hash, and it was a really hard hitting stone, kinda rushy with a few vague flashy light fx :D Girls wanted to get some cakes so we walked to Homegrow Fantasies, I bought a gram of their orange bud as I wanted something fruity, and my mate and the girls got some cake each. It was pretty quiet in HF, so we grabbed the wooden bench thing at the back, and I smoked the orange in one fat joint as it's not too strong. Orange had a orangey taste (shocker that..) and a nice mellow high which made the music sound really good, and they played a clip from the film Human Traffic (when Koop's pretending to scratch) which cracked me and my mate up, the American girls hadn't seen/heard of it though so I'm not sure if it didn't make the States, if you havn't seen it, buy/download it now :)
After a while at HF we went back to the apartment, stopping in some random smartshop on the way back and buying a nice glass pipe and some blunt wraps. Once back my friend promptly passed out (he's cut back on his smoking in the UK recently and couldnt take the pace..!) I smoked a joint of Stella mixed with Pot of Gold and watched The mighty Boosh on my laptop, and smoked the WW hash from the pipe for a while.
Ate some haribo and smoked a joint of Diesel, the smell of which woke my mate, so I dragged him to Grey Area to stock up, but by the time we'd got our shit together and walked there it was closed, Grey Area closing stupidly early at 8PM, which I forgot. I was pretty blazed by this point, so didn't mind wandering around, and we decided to try and get to Dampkring which for some reason I had in my head was nearish the Nes, so we walked up the Rokin (I think!) but decided we didn't really know where we were going, so we turned back, and cut back past the Nes and went to Greenhouse Centrum. In there I bought 4 grams of bio Bubblegum and a gram of bio White Widow, my friend got 4 grams of Silver Pearl and a gram of Sour Diesel, both bio. It was packed in Greenhouse and we'd left our smoking stuff at the apartment, so we didn't stop, just got some pizza and wandered for a bit through the RLD, didn't see anything amazing on offer though! Got back about 9, watched some random programme on Discovery channel, rolled a blunt with Sage n Sour, White widow, Pot of Gold, Silver Pearl and Cherry Bomb in it, then whilst it was drying out, put the rest of the Widow into a spliff, smoked that and another joint of Bubblegum, then smoked the blunt...From what I can remember at this point the Widow almost tasted like real white widow, a little bit skunky though for the real deal I think though (seems loads of coffeeshops are using White Widow hybrids with shorted flowering times..damn commercialism) The bubblegum had a nice taste, the high just kinda slotted in with the rest of the smoking so didn't notice anything specific about it, a bit more uppy possible. After that barrage my lightweight friend fell asleep, so I watched some cartoons (Sealab/Aqua Teen/Brak Show..none of this anime crap ;)) on my laptop in the kitchen, then went to bed and smoked a joint of Pot of Gold and about 1/2gram of the WW hash in the pipe before falling asleep.

Thursday 1 (my 20th Birthday woo..!)

Woke up pretty late, about 3pm, got some bacon and OJ from the supermarket then walked to Grey Area. In GA I bought 2 grams of Grey Mist, a gram of AK, a gram of C-13 and a gram of Grey Haze. My mate bought a gram of Martian Mean Green, 2 grams of 4077 medicinal, a gram of Greyberry and a gram of something else. Unfortunately I would guess Grey Area has just recently harvested, as apart from the Martian, all the bud was pretty damp and a bit fresh which was a shame as GA is normally one of my top rated shops for curing, but this weed was being sold a bit too soon. Actually got seats in GA for the first time in 4 trips which was nice so we smoked the AK and the Greyberry in a couple of joints, and sat around and smoked through 4:20. After regaining a bit of composure we went and got some more Pizza (gotta love the 'Dam healthy eating experience!) and went to the college again to take a couple of photo's of the garden. Once we got there I realised I'd left my phone (and hence camera) in the apartment so we vap'd some of the Martian and talked all things growing and cannabis related with Christie in the college for a while, then virtually flew back to the apartment, the Martian is a very nice strain, highly recommended. We had a pretty good stock of weed building up so decided to stay in that evening and get wasted, which we did with a massive blunt of almost all the strains mixed together with some hash sprinkled over it for good measure. Smoked that, then a the rest of the gram of Martian in a joint and that made us want to wander again, so we consulted the map I had saved on my laptop and decided to try and find Dampkkring again. I don't know what the hell it is about that place but we just couldn't find it, and somehow ended up walking past Bushdoctor. Dropped in there hoping they had Jelly hash and they did! Bought a gram of that, decided that if it really lived up to it's name then we should smoke it after walking around, so I continued chain smoking cigarettes (terrible I know) and with a couple of pointers from the guy working in Bushdoctor we set off in search of Dampkring again. Walked around for another 45 minutes, probably within metres of Dampkring but just couldn't find the place, and the Jelly hash was calling out to be smoked so we headed back to the apartment. When we got back we put a piece of the hash into the pipe, lit it..wow, the stuff bursts into flames really quickly, and the smoke is seriousely thick and rich, ripped the back of my throat out and had me coughing my lungs up and running around searching for water. Almost instantly the high hit me, really strong body stone and giggly/trippy aswell but still left me with a nice clear head. We smoked about 1/3 gram of the Jelly over an hour or two in the pipe, and justifiably this time, my friend fell asleep on the sofa so I went into the kitchen and watched the movie Dogma, accompanied by the grey haze, grey mist and a bit more jelly hash. After the movie I was pretty shitfaced so I listened to music for a while before going to bed at about 4am with a joint of Bubblegum and another lung busting pipe of Jelly hash.

June 2

Woke up at 10.30, packed my stuff away, cleared up a bit and went to the Greenhouse to check out. As we had our bags with us we couldn't be bothered to walk far so we got some pastries from a bakery and went to the College again as I didn't feel like being shut in a dark coffeshop like most of the central ones at lunchtime on the only day on the trip with decent weather! Smoked at the college and chatted with people for a couple of hours then went to the Nes and bought another gram of Stella, and a gram of Swazi. Dave was working, and he pointed us over to Dr. Gonzo so we went and said hey, rolled a joint of Stella and smoked that, then I (luckily) thought I would check our flight times, and discovered that we were flying at 5pm, not 9pm as we thought. We still had about 1.5grams of 4077, a little bit of the Stella, some silver pearl and the Swazi left, so I decided to grind it up, and rolled a couple of joints of Silver Pearl for the airport, and a joint of the Swazi. I put the rest, along with about 1/2gram of jelly hash in a baggy and melted it sealed and put it in my sock for the journey home. Smoked the Swazi and one of the Silver pearl joints, and B.I.G (If it was someone else I do apologise, I was wrecked!) came over and said hi. We left the Nes at about 2.30 and walked to Centraal station, went to Schipol and check in and then got some food (Yam Yam to Go rocks..). We had about an hour until boarding so we smoked the other joint outside the airport, then went through Passport control and bought a load of chocolate and other munchies from one of the shops. I won't go into detail, flight home fine, no problems at all at customs (3 customs officers talking with their backs turned as literally thousands of people walked though). Smoked a joint of the ground up mix in the car on the way home, then smoked some of the Jelly hash with my Dad as he was dying to try it!

All in all, good trip, nothing productive/educational accomplished at all which is good ;) I'm gonna hopefully go back for 20/04/07 so I can smoke with some less lightweight people next time around!

Take it easy!

Chris :)

Awesome report, and damn you are quite a smoker!
Human Traffic (when Koop's pretending to scratch) which cracked me and my mate up, the American girls hadn't seen/heard of it though so I'm not sure if it didn't make the States, if you havn't seen it, buy/download it now
Love that movie, i don't think it ever went inot the theatres here but i bought the DVD as soon as it was available.
ripped the back of my throat out and had me coughing my lungs
good to hear that the rumors of the Bushdoctor having real "jelly hash" are indeed true. I love the stuff i make so some made from high quailty Dutch materials......oohhhh my!

Also very curious about the apt. you rented but i will PM you about that.

Sounds like a monster trip there with PLENTY of plants consumed in the process.

Only bit I can remember from Human Traffic is where they guy's in his bedroom "bashing the bishop" and his old lady walks in and catches him. Need to see if I can rent it from somewhere (don't go in for these download sites, too dodgy and too slow most of the time too.)

The Mighty Boosh as well, man that must be great stoned. Only saw season 2 of that show but every episode was definitely watchable. Liked the Milky Joe one best.

I think you will feel right at home at 4/20 in Amsterdam judging by what you've got through this time.

I, myself, am a bit like your mate as far as smoking goes.

Great write up Rev, looks as though plenty of good herb and hash were consumed. Good to see you meet Dave and signed The Book. Look foward to meeting you next year at the next Annual ACD 420 Hook-Up. AzLaker 8)
