I thought Barney's and Blues Brothers were the best two coffee shops when I was there but that was back in '05

I'm definitely going to those two!

Do you guys think I'll have any trouble if I take a grinder (removing all the residues I can, almost impossible to clean completely) in my luggage?
What about bringing some seeds back? I guess it's reasonably safe to bring them in my pocket right?

I wouldn't bring the grinder, you can buy one mega cheap anywhere here or in Amsterdam. The seeds yes you can easily bring some seeds back in your luggage. I actually unintentionally brought 3g of excellent hash back in a pair of pants I was wearing. I was both happy and thankful my shit wasn't searched.

I got told by a friend who's been to the dam a month ago that rasta baby is closed down. Shitty stuff since I loved RB and its orangebud + the sweet reggae beat.
You could take a clean grinder with you. Just make sure it's clean and hide it. Are you going buy boat or plane? I bought a sweet 3 part kif catcher grinder in dampkring headshop for 18euro. So it's upto you.
Havn't a clue about seeds but i'm guessin it's all good if u hide 'em.

just booked flights for the start of Feb aswell:)
Ask away if ur not sure about anything...I'm fairly familiar with the place:) I normally head over every 8 weeks:) If your just buying from the coffee shop then barneys has some of the best stuff going but it is pricey.

The flight's today! I'm real baked lol.
6 hours to go, can't wait. I think the first coffeeshop I'm gonna hit is Pacific, since it's close to where I'm staying.

billy: every 8 weeks? Damn, I wish lol

Thanks elenor and kuroi! I'll have fun for sure, not sure if I'll want to come back though haha.

My friend is planning on bringing back a few grams... Personally I think it's not the best idea lol, I bet they even perform additional screening on flights arriving from Amsterdam.
Ah well, hopefully everything will be just fine.

I'm back! And I'm alive!

Ok, first of all I've attached a few pics to share with you guys. It snowed quite a bit on Thursday so everything was covered. It was also pretty cold (like -7C) with canals frozen and everything lol.

Overall, I think the best weed was Grey Haze from the Grey Area coffeeshop.
I really liked the service at Easy Times, the guy was really nice, he showed us all his weed and recommended the Strawberry and Super Silver Haze (if I recall correctly... haha) which were both great. There was another girl who made our hot chocolate who was also nice (she seemed to be the guy's gf? idk).

I liked Barneys' weed but I had imagined the service would be much better... There was a guy who spoke bad english, was really unfriendly and kept asking for ID even when people were taking them out of their wallets (even people who looked like 30!).

I'll write down a bit about my experience in other coffeeshops later, I need to roll up now :)

Awesome man! Sounds like you had a nice vacation! I've never been. Maybe one day. Nice pics of the city.

Thanks neosapien. The vacation was great!

You should visit too :) It's definitely worth it, especially if you live in Europe due to the cheap plane tickets (try transavia).

It's on the list for sure. If money were no object, i'd just go ahead and move to Europe. At least 50/50.

I'm surprised the service wasn't great... i guess I was lucky to meet such chilled out coffeeshop workers. The weed looks awesome! Huge contrast, when I went it was 90F!

So, did you manage to get your weed back home? I took about a quarter, some hash and seeds but that was a train... so a little different.

I hope you weren't too cold and the majority of people were nice. Tell us more when you get back <3

Did you rent a bike? That's the funnest part about amsterdam in my opinion. Well that and smoking weed on the street.
