The day started out great. Up early as usual, (3:00am) bags are already packed, so I walk the dogs before we leave, have something to eat and we're off. We get to the airport in record time, and since I'm already checked in, a quick run though TSA and I wait.
Plane doesn't for leave another 2 hours, so I grab something to eat to pass the time. Before you know it, the cattle is loaded onto the plane and we're off, on to Detroit MI. Three hours later, we land, and I'm done with the first leg of the journey. This time I have almost a 4-hour layover. Unfortunately, the plane has some issues, so we're delayed another hour and a half.
With the airport almost virtually dead, we finally take off around 12:30am. I'm super tired now, so headphones on, boppy on, eye mask on, and its good night (at least for 4 hours) for some well needed shut eye. 
8 hours later, we land. Everything is going smooth until I hit customs. One person manning the EU side, and ONE person manning the rest. Choas!!! I wait for, who knows how long, before I'm ushered over to the EU side and....finally get through. 
Was supposed to meet Trad, Sam, and Ghost at the airport, but that plan went to sh*t. 
At least I have my train ticket, and my tram pass secure, so I'm good to go. Train was on time, as always,
so before you know it, I'm in Centraal Station. Ahhhh what a great feeling being back in Amsterdam. It never goes away. 
Make my way to the #4 tram, exit at the Keizersgracht stop and head over to my apartment by the Skinny Bridge. The landlady was waiting for me when I arrived. A super person.
She gave me a grand tour of the place, and we chatted forquite some time. It's now after 5:00pm and I still need to get my act together before meeting everyone at Siberie.
Slow, but sure, I finally get out the door and make my way to the tram. The tram is a little slow, so I figured I hoof it all the way over there, since I been sitting in planes on and off for 12 hours, so the walk will do me good. Wrong!!! You'll see what i mean in a minute. The place is busy when I finally arrive, so I grab a gram of Kosher Kush, a water and grab a table. Soon Ghost & Gapie arrive. We say our hellos & soon Joints are passed around. Not too long after Talkrum, Bedge, his son Jamie Dodger, Stevesec, Lemming and Igraine all show up.
Once again, hugs and hellos are in order. More joints are passed around and not long after, I'm starting to feel the effects of the cannabis, or was it my loooooong frecking day, or both. 
I tell everyone, I'm sorry but this old man is tired 
and going back to my apartment and crash. I wander over to the tram stop and wait impatiently for the #4. I finally get to the apartment, do what I must do, and I'm in bed and dead to the world. It was a short day, hanging with the gang, but I have 5 full days left to enjoy the ACD gang. Roll on 4/20/25
Day 2 coming???
