Default Amsterdam - Give me your suggestions!

Going on Saturday until Tuesday.

Lets have some suggestions, best place for a good smoke, decent place for good night life and plenty of flange..

The best alley in the RLD??

Any suggestions on what we should be doing? Went in Feb. but really can't remember much!

Coffee shops are ok and pretty laid back and cater well for the tourist trade, as for flange hwo much you got to spend Dan??

Plenty of wrong uns around so dont go getting lost on your own or you could be wakeing up with a sore arse and a funny taste in your mouth

best coffee shops are out of the center.

Most of the "local" ones dont like tourists - especially the english. If you can come accross as a sound person they will sort you out with some seriously good shit at a decent price!y
Also in the red light district watch out for the fat black africans... they will literatly try and drag you in off the street. Not fun. Not fun at all!

Oh that's happend a few times In Feb.

I remember it well. And we ended up in Tranny Alley some how.

What about Night life? Fancy going to a club but I assume day before NYE/ NYE is gonna be expensive.

I think I know where hill st. blues is.. I'll go on a treck!

Not sure where to spend NYE yet, dont' wanna spend mega bucks in a club, so may go Leidseplein, or stay in Dam Square.

I found the The Bulldog and La Kana were both good Coffee shops and very friendly! As for the black guys, well in the space of 400 yards I got asked 10 times if I wanted Coke or Pills! Some excellent places to go get munchies from and lots of walking after!

Dan....


Homegrown Fantasy

La Canna in the daytime, sit in the window and laugh your nuts off

De Kuil , just off a sidestreet on the main road

Barneys breakfast bar, if you cant get in there for food, around the corner is popeyes also for brekkys and right opposite is PINK FLOYD which is a MUST go to

Last time we went, we stayed at the greenhouse effect, which is a chilled out place, with D&B dj's at weekends, right in the RLD



TRY AND FIND THE DAMPKRING a little dingy place with SMALL seats, but excellent greenery



Have a top new year m8, wish i could come with yas
