DAY 1- Friday 17th


I woke up anxiously, 30 mins before my alarm had been set to. I promised myself not to do any wake'n'bake at home so i can go into dam without having a smoke that day. Suprisingly i keep this promise and leave by plane to Eindhoven around 10am(40 mins of fucking delay...). Fortunately i get lucky by meeting some fellow Poles going to a stag party in Dam and they offer me a ride from airport to Amsterdam Centraal. Hell yeah, i'm in! Just past 1 pm i disembark and go straight to Central for some haze. And boy, this Amnesia Haze(9e/g) is a definite bang for bucks, and it's become a repeat purchase for a daytime smoke. Dense buds, properly cured and lovely taste. I contemplate how tasty and buzzy in the head it is, smoking a j ang heading towards my place. After checking in, i gather my shit and head to Voyagers cause it's close to 3pm and we're supposed to do a Utrecht crawl today. Got some Tangie(13,5e/g) cause it smelled and looked insane, about 1 min after i feel overpowering taste of oranges in my bong. Fuck yeah!:D
Then Lemming and J arrive, i head to greet and finally meet them("Are you Lemming? Cause I'm not sure":D), and not much time passes as we start a little session in Voya. Occasional Bowl arrives as well, but he's not interested in going to Utrecht, so he joins a little smokeout until us 3 decide it's about time to leave. Quick train ride to Utrecht and we're standing in front of Andersom. This is always sentimental thing for me hence it's the first CS I've ever visited.

. Lem gets some WW, I go with Misty(8.5e) and we head downstairs to skin up and bong in. After some time we slowly head to our main destination, which is T'Grasje.

On our way we go through Pleasure(which was kinda confusing for me, cause i remember there was a different CS in this location-Bordeaux Rood). BT explains to me that owner is the same, only a name changed. Their prices are really nice so i decide to sample a bit by choosing Grape Ape(0.6g-5e). Nice bag appeal, good smell and nice taste in Flowermate as i learn that later on:) Our walk continues through Wietstok(Andersom's sister shop), Culture Boat(hoped for some nice hash) onwards to T'Grasje. The atmosphere there is spot on as usual, verdampers on table but my main concern was to get some Jedi OG or Lemon Royal(unfortunately we missed it maxxxx). Top of the menu doesn't look that banging so i decide to go through all of strains. Lem decides to split in and we get a g of Shiva for 10e. Nice, big, dense bud. Unfortunately no chocomel on the premise, but BT tells us to go to Jumbo next door and get whatever we want. After stocking up with some goodies we start our bong-joint-verdamper session and it doesn't take long before feeling pretty mashed. Just before 8pm we start to leave, i decide to take ACD crew different route so we can visit CS Freak and 208. Freak is opened but nothing stands out, 208 is closed early(2:30pm that day-note from the owner at the front door).
We call it a day and get back to dam just past 9pm. We head different directions, planning to meet up in Batavia around 10pm. I get there around 10:30 and basically everybody's there. Lem, J, Gapie, OB. I meet Smirks and Fraidofspiders as well(nice to meet you guys:D) and we start vape-joint-bong session. After a short period of time most decide to call it a night, but Smirks and myself think that first night should be ended with grande finale. We target 420 cafe but it's packed as hell so we go straight to Utopia to bong it out there. Some Super Diamond Hash(13e) mixed with Citral(13e) and Kosher Kush from GA does the job in a superb way. Especially when having a double bong session:D



We chat to Ingi about 420 Cup, Utopia closing and Citral grower, who's gonna quit doing what he does, cause of the shitty new dutch law. Oh, and thanks for the free green tea:) We basically close the shop along with her and part in our apartment's direction. Some munchies kick in so i stop somewhere to eat(don't remember what place:D) and go straight to bed. Hell of a day 1, I'd say:)

Culture Boat:

nice read - sounds like you had a great time

Yeah Utrecht's quite a nice place, especially the old prostitution boats at the Zandpad, which sadly closed a year ago...fucked the most beautiful girl I've ever been with there a few years ago: a real 9/10 stunner from Bulgaria, t'Grasje was good too, but the whore was better LOL

I heard about Zandpad boats closing last year or so, still if she was better than some gear at Grasje, then it must've been quite a fuck:D

.

Anyway, back to weed, day 2 coming soon:D

Great stuff Papi! Looking forward to the rest...
Also, sterling work on all the menu shots you grabbed, that must be an all time record.

You think?:D I just tried to remember to take a menu shot of every CS I went to. Mission failed at some time, but was still suprised while putting all of them in order after i got back home.

Day 2-Saturday 18th

I woke up past 9am in a nice hazey way, not really knowing what's going on, until I notice a joint lying next to me. Right
I'm in Dam, time to get up and do sth useful with my day, especially with the Haarlem trip coming up. By the time I'm
finished with getting myself organised, it's already around 11, so i make a quick pop down to Central for some Amnesia
Haze, while smoking my morning joint. I head down to Voyagers for a pre-Haarlem TnT, and Smirks is a step ahead of me when we enter CS. We grab entire window seat section, and shortly after OB and Treetop arrive. I turn back again and there is ftcarer with 1stborn standing and greeting everybody(was great to finally meet you! hope to see you when I'm in UK). We
chat briefly about them being earlier in Utopia, as i still have some leftover Citral from yesterday(as a Citral fan). 1st
born hands me his Citral baggie, saying he really doesn't like it, and it's gonna be better in my joint. FT loves this Sweet Pink
Grapefruit(13,5e/g) and tells me straight away it's banging while passing a joint. Yummy it is, very nice high!(but i
still like Citral more:D) Lem arrives in the meantime, I get out for a minute to grab some traditional Kiełbasa(polish sausage)asI had promised to bring some for TT. He's off as well for some private grower's samples. Shortly after, we both return, so I pull out my travel bong and we resume our vape-joint-bong session, as Debo watches us very very carefully from behind a counter.




Our smokeout continues, until just before 2pm, when we finally decide to hit Haarlem. WW Sativa(just next to station) is
our first spot, Smirks,TT and OB split from us to get some lunch, I settle with Sour Tangie(12e/g), FT does as well,
saying he also got some hash. We mash ourselves using house bong and joints, shortly after rest of the crew get back from
lunch and we start sampling, using different paraphenalia. Lots of room, clean bongs and nice interior in this place. Perfect environment to get mashed in a chilled out way.





Afterwards we head to Join Us(a quick b&f, didn't get anything), nicely lighted coffeeshop, and to WW Indica. Unfortunately, their menu is exactly the same as the one in Sativa, so we don't even bother going in. I didn't even bother taking a menu shot, just copied the Sativa one. In the meantime our urge for Jelly becomes overpowering so we wander back to the station area and to Birdy's. I felt the munchies kicking in, as well as Smirks and TT, despite them having lunch just some time ago(some herring temptation it's been). We stop at chip shop and herring place, and then we head in a opposite direction, passing Birdy's couple of times...stoners, just plain stoners:D Eventually we go in, and unfortunately NO JELLY... our face expressions say it all. Just very, very sad. I get some Knetter(10e-1,2g) as a consolation and some hash, don't remember which one, but it was really, really nice. Toking continues, when suddenly madmaxxxx makes his appearance, along with some wax he picked up at WW Sensimilla, strong stuff, wrecks us even more than we already are. Bags,bongs, vapes, joints are in play, with Smirks coming in and out of reality on the armchair. At some point i'm left with 3 lit joints that do me in really nicely. We talk about next day's brekkie at La Grotte before western crawl and slooooooooooooowly head down to station. Train ride back to Dam passes in almost complete silence and we roll out of train just before 8pm. We split, I head down to my place to reorganise and grab sth to eat before maxxx gets here from Haarlem. Not many moons later, he makes his arrival and we head down to de Pijp, passing Green Place on the way as maxxx wanteed some Shoreline. De Graal and Media seem to be pretty packed, as well as their supply is at the end(mostly popcorn-sized buds). I settle for some Hindu Kush at Media(11e/g) and we scrap to Katsu. Some Mango Haze on the many ACD recommendations(10e-0,7g), nice looking and smelling bud, superb high as well. And their housebong is top-notch, which i gladly take advantage of, engaging in a total bong-out with maxxx and couple of locals.



He had to get back to Haarlem so we pack our shit and head to center around midnight. We part our ways, but see each other around Febo 15 mins later:D I text ft and he's in Prix D'ami, fair deal, since Febo is next door. I visit the place, smoke sth with ft and 1stborn, he's saying some nice things about Grapefruit Kush from there, i try to participate in a intelligent conversation but at this point I'm pretty much done:D I say my goodbyes and head to Utopia, Jess is there, some locals that i can't remember their names are as well and i hit a couple of bongs before she has to close down. I get back to the B&B, grab some beer and start rolling joints for a boxing fight night. Fellow Pole, Andrzej Fonfara utterly beats mexican boxing legend down, as i celebrate his victory with a fat joint and some beer at 5am. Well done Andrzej, you made us proud:D Time to finally get some much needed sleep.
To be continued
