Day 3 in Amsterdam 4/20/2024

Post by AzLaker »

Well as you can read my subject topic, it's 4/20/2024 today! :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
After hardly any sleep the night before, it's catch-up time on the zzzz's. Up at 8:30 :shock: :wink: I take a quick shower and I'm off to meet Ghost around 9:00ish and have breakfast with Jollylittlehun at The Omelegg. The "hun" is running late so it's just Ghost and I. A small line was outside, meaning this was a good place to eat. And it didn't disappoint. :D
We head over to Siberia for a 11:00 T&T proposed by Jollylittlehun. We arrive, knowing he'll be running a little behind.
Ghost pulls out our mascot for the week...

Names were floating around for our fury green friend, not sure if Ghost settled on one or not. Traveled around all week with us. :lol: We grab a couple of latte's, water and chill. Wasn't that busy when we first arrived, but it didn't take for the ACD gang started to show up. If I recall, :think: Bedge, Docgonzo, Lemming, Igraine, and also Jollylittlehun were there. Did I miss anyone? Had a nice little session, while getting introduced to some of the folks I haven't met before. :D
Around 2:00pm, we get a text from Trad, that the back section of the 420 coffeeshop is full and no one was leaving. :o
We round up our gear and make our way over to the 420 C.S., and the place is rammed already. :crazy: :eh: :lolno:
A couple of tables up front open up, so we cement our butts there and get ready for 4/20. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

A BIG thanks to Sam for taking 95% of these pics & sending them to me. :thumbup: :clap: :wave:

Trad to the left, DrGonzo to the right, the back of Occasional Bowl's head. Bedge is here somewhere, just not in the pics. :lol:
The place was packed by the time 4/20 rolled around. The count-down began and here's a couple more photo's of the ACD crew.

Igraine to the left, DocGonzo in the back, O.C. to the right.

The crew stayed awhile then moved to the bar next, De Kroon. Use to be "The Bottle." Nothing changed inside, pre-rolls only, but hey, we can drink & smoke. Hungry for food, (I'm always saying that) Ghost, O.C. and myself trek off in search of a Subway. Somehow, we couldn't a Subway, so we wind up stopping at a New York pizza place for a slice or 2. :D Took care of the growling for now. :wink:

After eating, we head over to Resin for the meet up. :mrgreen: We gather up the folks who are going on the tour, and Talkrum goes along just in case of a no show. Turns outs, 4 people didn't show up, so he joins the group. :clap:
The boat tour is fun, considering the conditions outside. We had 4 folks in the back that maybe didn't realize that this was a POT smoking tour. :lol: :lol: You'll see from the pics. Unfortunately, the hookah couldn't be used to smoke cannabis. :x
Or well, the group did our best to fill up the boat.
The Hookah on board with the crew.

Boat tour over, we split up to find something to eat. Ghost heads a few of us to a nice steakhouse. We all ordered our food, but we got the evil look from the waiter, because a couple of us ran off real fast to buy some edibles at a coffeeshop before dinner was served. :lol: Fortunately for us the waiter was laughing at the end of the service. :clap: Good food, good drinks, and good company. :thumbup: :)
We end up at Batavia to finish off a great 4-20 night. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Day 4 to follow. :mrgreen:
