Axeman - July 1st - July 4th '07 PART 1
Posted: Tue 10th Jul 2007 03:18 pm
Been home for 5 days and havent been bothered (too stoned) to even turn my PC on untill today. I had a few hiccups traveling out to begin with. First off my plane was 45 miniutes late, i was meeting a mate from London at Schiphol, i got there at 6pm expecting to meet him, found out his plane was 1hr 40 minutes late, he touched down at 7.45pm, British Airways then lost his bag, including £300 Ipod and £400 Bose I-pod speakers, that took 40 mins, (for the record his bag still hasn't been found). We didnt get into a coffeeshop till 9.06pm. I'd have just met him in Amsterdam at the hotel but he wouldnt know where to find me, he only been once and that was 5 years ago. He used to chong all the time but only smokes once a month now and likes to drink instead. Which made this trip slightly different to the others.
Stayed at the Hotel Vijaya opposite Febo in the RLD. stayed here 5 times now. nice staff and clean bedding. First stop was The Coin, no MK Ultra so i asked him what was the nearest thing, he recommended the Kushage Indica at 9e per g. Nice and flavoursome, i love the first joint in Dam always knocks ya for six. Took a trot over to Betty Boop and got 1.4g Bubblegum for 10e. Not sure on the bubblegum taste, wasn't really there. BUT the buds were absolutley caked in crystals and looked very tasty. Quality bargain weed. Went back to the RLD and popped into Smokin Bull for a pint, graet place for a beer and a smoke. they have a couple of bongs and pipes and even a Volcano vapouriser which i made use of. Plenty of seating available in this place and even had a game of darts. A bit tricky after Bongs, Beer, Spliffs and vapo`s. my mate fancied another beer so we went to the Greenhouse Effect, i picked up 2g NYCD Haze for 23e, we all know the taste of grapefruit in NYC, and this was no exception apart from that slight haze twist. Had my head buzzin like a fucked fridge.
.
Got to about Midnight so we fancied a hot chocolate from Bar Sheeba and a slice of Gateaux. This where it all went wrong for me, I yawned and titlted my head back with my eyes shut. Everything started to spin, my mate asked if i was alright. "yeah fine" i replied. "you dont look it" he said. I tried to ride it out for a couple of minutes but then confessed "i need to get the fuck outta here right now! I need fresh air dude!" i could barley walk! what was happening to me? my t-shirt was literally soaked with cold sweat. Anyway after about 30 seconds i started to feel absolutley fine and 3 minutes later i was back to normal. So we went back the hotel for a spliff and some kip.
Monday - After eating a boiled egg and cheese sandwich for brekki we decided to go to Prix D'ami for a coffee and check out some smoke. The Kali mist which i was after was sold out. so i opted for just 2g Blueberry at 8e per g. Again, i wasnt sure about the taste of blue berry but it was a good morning smoke to start the day off. Loved the shop too went round the back and chilled at the table for a half hour and chatted about gambling. After leaving here i was keen to check out Pink Floyds to see if there were any changes. None what so ever apart from the menu. Quality menu if you ask me. wanted to pick up some of my favourites here so got 5g Rifman Nouzha for 12e per g, a bit more pliable and a euro cheaper than the Rifman Noor. fantastic hash. 2g Super Silver Haze. The taste of the Super Silver is definatley one of my top 3 of all time. Strong as fuck too. No spinning out in here though. Got a toastie and a hot-dog from here aswell both around E2.40. Then went to the Tram stop at Centraal to pick up a day pass for around 5euros.
Wanted to got to the Grey Area when it opened as it gets busy within 40 seconds of the door opening. John was just taking the chairs off the table when he saw me outside waiting in the rain. He gave us a friendly wave and opened the door and we gave him a hand with the remaining 8 chairs! lol. i was keen to find out what all the fuss was about with the Sourloupe so i got 5g for 60euros, As soon as he opened the tub up and i got a whiff of the herb i just said "I'll take 5 of that". The taste is something else, it really is. Nice high feeling too, pretty potent, i was "in the zone" for about 10 mins not being able to muster up anything to say to my mate. Had look at the Bubbleloupe, its Bubblegum and something else which escapes my mind right now. You can really taste the Bubblegum flavour in here and at a fair price too, manged to get 5g for 47.50e . i think i prefered it to the Sourloupe personally. I was beginning to find it difficult to tell the different effects of each strain now and i just felt wrecked all over.
Hopped on the tram to Leidseplein, lovely part of town, made a note to spend more time out here when i come each time. Sat outside on the square and supped a couple of heinekens under the umbrellas, great. My only complaint was some twat who was selling those bird whistler thingys, and he was chirping for England. Anyway my mate was getting tired of walking round in his flip-flops and shorts so he went to buy some trainers.
Went to the Rokerij coffeeshop soon after, fanatsic layout and decor, been here once and that was a couple of years back. Morrocan type furniture and very dark. Landed some amazing Rokerij Sour Diesel, 4g at 10e per g. This stuff was just the best weed i had all trip! The smell, taste and effects were all very strong. Chilled in here for a good hour or so and focused on a fly on the cream walls for 20-30 mins. then reaslised it was just a speck of muck. heh heh, cabbage!
Strolled round to Noon to have a blast on the East Coast Train-Wreck one of my mates told me about. The shop was full of locals. The seats were comfy enough with large coshions to prop yourself up with. Got my hands on 3g of the Train Wreck at 12e per g. Potent gear with a very sweet smell to it. I like this weed
After a bit more wandering in circles we decided to head back and Went to Wok to Walk for tea. After a shower and a freshen up we went to Stix Coffeeshop. Wanted some Gunpowder so i snaffled up 2g for 25e. The girl that always works was workin again
. Shes cool and always has time for quick chat about stuff. They also had some Haze which i cant for the life of me remember what it was. But i do know that it cost 11e per g and was quite strong. i remember my eyesight going reall fuzzy in Stix.
Well That was Sunday night and Monday done with so i'm gonna toot on some Kashmir Maroc and take a quick nap for the time being.
Part II will be done on Tuesday night
