Rezin Does Amsterdam - Day 2 (part 1)

Post by Rez »

Day 2 - Thursday 16th March

Eyes open, wide awake… well, not quite but more like rub eyes trying to prise the lids apart as the muscles are so relaxed they have gone on 24hr siesta. Roll my snakeskin-feel tongue back in and try to produce some saliva to help me as I munch through the remains of that KINGSIZE Snickers bar stuck to the pillow… Yummy, the warm Diet Coke that’s now flat coz the lid has been off all night really tastes good as it washes all that choccy down.

Its 9:45am we’re up, awake and preparing for more of yesterday’s fun, must admit to be a little edgy as last night was a few hours, today will be like 14-16 hours at it.

After a long walk without a proper CS map and me working from memory as I had not printed the ACD map (fool) we eventually found Pink Floyd CS. Having read that they did breakfasts and the menu was also top notch this seemed to me to be worth the effort we made to get there.

An appetite had been worked up and it must have been just gone 11am when we were served our Floyds Breakfast. I read the food menu and chose this with an amount of concern as to how is would be…

Eggs, Bread, Croissant, Marmalade, Cheese, Salami, Ham, Lettuce, Cucumber and Tomatoes.

It was a listed and not anything like I’ve eaten for breakfast before. I’m not saying there is anything wrong with this breakfast it’s just that I’ve not eaten all of those foods at the same time before, particularly breakfast time.

Paul gave me his meat as he’s Jewish and does not do the pork thing so I’m now on double ham and pork… for breakfast. :?

Finishing off with the Croissant and Marmalade it all came together and after the orange juice I felt alive and ready to smoke.

I bought 1.2g of Dirty Jack Herrer and 1.4g of Mothers Finest. I returned to Paul’s raised eyebrows and smirky grin. “This one is for tonight” I said as I lifted the Mothers Finest.

We blasted into the Jack and headed out for a wander… As I passed the dealer who was now at the food/drink counter I patted him on the shoulder and told him “this is going to be very difficult”… he laughed and said, “what, walking?” I was just about holding myself upright as I shuffled out of the door, turning back to him was not an option I had, in fact I could not even answer him.

Paul was just like me and we just walked aimlessly for an hour or so. We had no direction and I’m sure we went round and round. We ended up going into The Doors CS to get a coffee to try and get a grip on everything. (Check the ACD map to see how far The Doors is from Pink Floyd).

We had a coffee and as Azlaker’s signature says “Take life by the horns and hold on”… I got out the Mothers Finest. Now, I thought that this was a good move, we had a day ahead of us and my attitude was that as I was there and I had a bag of top quality bud I might as well try some now.

I wish I had stuck to my plan of smoking the Indica in the evening or when back at the Hotel because this turned out to be a big mistake for me… I hit a massive pipe full of Mothers Finest and as soon as I put the pipe down Paul said “we off then?” It was not my ideal choice of CS as was not on my list, we just went in. I gulped back my coffee and out we went. I have no idea what time it was or even what day it was. I have no idea what route we took but we went back to the Hotel as we were both totally destroyed. My left arm went all off-peak and I was so adiment that my arm was dropping off at the elbow I had to roll my sleeve up and fully inspect my arm from all angles, even my reflection in a shop window. It just felt like it was hanging and about to fall off. For this reason I put my hand in my pocket. I got totally freaked by this and really started to panic, I told Paul and he just pissed himself laughing at me which really didn’t work for me. The arm sensation faded and as it did, the absolutely overwhelming euphoria that followed the panic was one of the warmest mellowest, highest stoned feelings I’ve ever had. I’m still off my face and my whole life feels like a massive jigsaw puzzle, I just have no idea where all the pieces go… It was so serious; I could not even find the corners. I’m baffled as to how all the people that live in A’dam manage to get anything done, how does the city function when they all feel like this. Paul had to remind me that WE are tourists and as smokers, we are a very small minority… I was messy.

We crashed onto our beds back at the hotel, I hit the MF again and the next ting I know I was suggesting to Paul that as it was now 7:30pm we should get up and back out for the evening. I have no idea but I seem to recall us getting to the Hotel around 2.45pm

Day 2 (Morning) purchases 1.2g Dirty Jack Herrer & 1.4g Mothers Finest – both from Pink Floyd and €10 each

I was not happy to have wasted so much time in bed, in the Hotel and during the DAY! We did a 5 hour session, had a break and now had another session ahead of us… looking forward to getting back on the street

Day 2 evening to follow (RDL/Dinner/More Weed)

These exact same thoughts have often crossed my mind :? It must be something to do with their tolerence levels. It is amazing that the budtenders can even get their shit together at all.

Great report again Rez. I felt I was back there, better fire up the vape and chill 8) It is Sunday after all.

Day 2 still sounds like a pretty successful one even if you did have a little afternoon nap.

That Floyds breakfast sounds crazy and the weed sounds even crazier.

I'm laughing soooo hard right now, I can hardly type this message. Rezin_8_ed, nice job. These write-ups between you and Zippy are fantastic. I'll be reading these over a couple of times, they were so good. Thanks for the updates. I bet you won't forget your ACD map next time. Walking around lost and stoned in Amsterdam isn't a bad thing, unless you can't find another coffeeshop, NOT!!! Thanks man, AzLaker 8)

P.S. Alright, you still got 2 more days to write about. Bring it on.
If you never do, you'll never know.

Brilliant write up Rez!! Have you thought about doing this professionally?

The writing I mean - not going to Amsterdam and getting ruined ha ha

Den, take a pocket notrpad and a pen, make a note of what you buy, where from and how much... if you can detail the bud/hash and it's effects... it's hard to keep writting but if you can make a note of what happens as you go you will be happy.

Just reading the notes from the day before is a crack, even trying to read the handwriting became hard work :?

When you get home, read through you notes and type away in a word document before posting. That way you can really get into the whole experience and let lose, we'll all love to hear about what you got upto.

I tried keeping a notepad journal once. It didn't work. After the first shop I had to toss the idea. I could no longer differentiate between the buds as I am a chainsmoker. I finish one smoke and start another. In that shop, the Andalusia, I bought five grams of different buds, and after smoking the first 3 grams I just threw my notepad into the trash. I couldn't keep track of the five grams from my first shop. no way I was keeping track of every five gram purchase I made. So, anyone who can do this.. my hat is off to you.

It's funny because as fucked as I was I still dont think I really pushed myself... I wish now, only two days after the event, I wish I had just gone for it big time.

There's always next visit. :lol:

WOW :!: :!: Last two trips I made I brought a little note book, which usually started on day one and got forgotten by day 2. Have a much better digital camera and am going to try real hard to use this as my log and get it right this time. GREAT REPORTING :!: :!: Keep it up, gives me inspiration to do better :idea:
