Going to Amsterdam this week. Any advices ?

PHB

Hi all,

I'm going to Amsterdam this week (from 9 till 12 of may) with my GF (her birthday present) and I was wondering if any of you have tips around peppers ?

Is there any members of THP from dam ?

Unfortunately I won't have time to elaborate a plan and drive to Wageningen to commit a robbery at CGN, it will be for the next time. :D
 
Guys ... I was pretty sure this topic was about to turn around the main attraction in dam. :high:

Thanks for the tips but you have to know something :
- in EU we are the 3rd country for weed consumption per habitant after Spain and Czech Republic (Netherlands is not even in the top ten ...)
- even if it's forbidden by the law here, I've never heard of anyone going to jail for weed smoking or growing. I mean I've been caught countless times by the cops and the worse that ever happen to me is that they throw my stuff in the gutter ... (I never even been in a Police Station for that)
- Netherlands is 3h from Paris ... I mean for us it's just like going to the supermarket for the week end ...

Just to say that I don't need to go to dam for this. It's not like new or exciting for us (it's even very old fashion to go to dam for this reason). I got all what I want next door trust me. But yeah, I will stop by for sure, you have to respect traditions :)

(It just remind me that one day I will have to tell you a great story about walking among bears in the wood at Yosemite park having eaten special brownies ... )

So thanks again for the tips, but I was more thinking about peppers (what this forum is all about). The only thing I know about peppers & Netherlands is CGN, but maybe there is some great things to see/visit ?
 
All happy now bunch of junkies ? ;)

By the way, didn't find anything about peppers in dam ... :(
 
Hi PHB. Not sure about types of chilli or best places to get them but you probably already know about all the great Indonesian restaurants in the dam, you can have a good spicy feed in any one of them

***Just saw the date and realised you're already there, be sure to check out the museums, there are definitely more exciting things to do than just get high***

Thanks, but yes I'm already back from dam. I only visited the Van Gogh museum and the National Maritime museum. Totally agree with you on "there are definitely more exciting things to do than just get high", this is what I was trying to explain in my previous posts.
 
Did you get to anne frank's house? I've always wanted to see it but the time always seemed to disappear on me. If I ever go back it'll be first on my list.

I tried to, but the queue was so long the hostess told me we would have to wait 2h before reaching the ticket office :(
 
I will do it next time for sure.

Damn - sorry I've been so busy that I missed this topic. I lived 6 miles south of there for 2 years. I have a ton of great advice for food, museums, etc. 
:(
 
Looks like you found the weed ok. 
;)

Ha that's a pitty. Well your advices are more than welcome for my next trip ;)
 
Yeah weed is not the hardest thing to find in dam ... 8-)  The quality is there but it's soooo expensive ! :confused:  (I paid 10x the price I pay in France)
