Re: What was your first and last Coffeeshop visited
On my first visit in Jan '06 I had no real idea on what coffeeshops I should be looking out for so after a bite to eat, myself and the three people I was with wandered into the first shop we came across, picked up a gram of orange bud and smoked two cones between us. Well that first taste of Amsterdam weed hit us all pretty hard and by the time we had made our way to the hotel none of us had any recollection of what shop it was.
This didn't seem to bother the rest of the group but I really wanted to know which shop was my first so on each of my next 5 trips I made an effort to try track it down, wandering the area where I roughly thought I was that day, looking at Coffeeshop maps, I kept thinking it has to be 'Ben' but each time I would march over to it I would have to remind myself that it wasn't (how could it be after I had checked it out the previous year? I generally got in the mood to search for my first shop when particularly stoned!) After so many attempts I was ready to throw in the towel, figuring it must have closed, until that is I came across this site, after looking through all the shops in the area, a picture caught my eye, Freeworld, how did I miss you on all those wanders I'll never know!
What I do know is I'll be paying you a visit when I'm over in January to celebrate 6 years of searching! Thanks ACD it wouldn't be possible without you. (this adventure is where my forum name, Free Ben, came from!)
My last shop was in September of this year, the Greenhouse centrum (which I had previously said I wouldn't visit again....), went in for a pre roll just before heading to the airport as I didn't want to pick up a gram with so little time, they were out of pre rolls but the bud tender was a nice guy and sold my 0.4g of Jack Herer which by the look he got from the second bud tender I don't think is something they usually do!

Trip 1- Voyagers, Anyday; Trip 2- Voyagers, Voyagers. So I guess the answer to your question is: VOYAGERS!
