weather is going to suck...!

Post by Justboy »

Just looked at the 7 day forecast for my time in amsterdam and guess what...its supposedly gonna rain everyday we're there (23rd - 27th). Just means we'll be spending even more time in indoors in coffeeshops which i guess isn't a bad thing.

I wouldn't worry too much about the weather, as its so close to the coast any rain usually blows over quite quickly, plus I rarely trust the weathermen.

I'm there from the 27th to the 2nd. I'm hoping it doesn't piss it down 24/7, but I guess we have no control over the weather so there's no point in worrying about it too much.

The main things limited by the weather are smoking in the outdoor section of some cafes, which is always nice to do, and also chilling in the Vondelpark- I love chilling out with a spliff, some music and buying beer off the people selling cans for a euro or so in the park, absolute bliss when it's a nice day.

Still, if it rains it rains, I'll be in Amsterdam regardless!

Personlly I think "the weather is gonna suck" is to each his own I would love to see it rain the whole time i'm in the dam I cant remember the last time I seen it rain much less Grass. It been sunny and hot for atleast 4 months, with the occasional sand storm.
I hate nobody...or maybe I hate myself.
