The pass was deffo overlooked .. i went last november and there was a sign up in a coffeeshop window saying how its now upto local authority to control it not the coffee shops themselves will post photo i took if i can find it .. look into a hotel called the quentin in harlemmerstraat .. it cost me 130 quid for three days two nights and flights included ... its right next door to popeyes too so nice breakfast nd j in the morning .. d be interested if i could get monies...
No problem. Forgot to mention that hotel (which i will deffo go to when i visit again ) has to be one of the only hotels left that lets you smoke in the rooms ... all she said to us when we asked was if its not the biggest room open the windows.. which opened oit onto the main road so u can just watch everyone buzzing about outside in all the coffeshops and flying up and down on the pushbikes and what not .. much more fun than it sounds haha .... if i manage to sort out some money ttho ill deffo be up for it ... its been 7 months since i went and man im getting the blues ...
If u need any more pics or whateverr let us know and ill see what i can dig out ..

Got back Saturday night, though I saw someone familiar wondering out one of early morning doors. how was she he?
Very nice place though even if you're not into the whole sex, drugs & rock n roll. If you're going for a hostel there's shelter city, it's in the middle of the red light district but it's a Christian hostel and there's a no booze or drugs policy including being under the influence.
Oh and for the love of god watch out for the bike lanes!

Second the 'watch out for bike lanes comment ' .. or just bikes in general .. took all but two minutes of being there for my gfs dad to nearly get himself run over and have some dutch woman shouting HEY as she flies past.. the bikes literally are everywhere ..some real crazy contraptions too some like pushbikes with a wheelbarrow on the front.... just adds to the whole craziness off the city ..
It felt like a dreamworld when i got out the taxi the first time haha.
I've just got back from Holland, albiet a quiet town no where near Amsterdam Just ask for 'Koffie shops' and you'll be fine...nothing like a coffee shop here

Lol, steve!
Considering the fact i was out there with my girlfiriend, no such shenanigans were undertaken! I think that may have been Chris leaving the tranny district you saw...
Heineken factory is a good one, as Dum says. Anne Franks house is good (if you are into that), and so is the zoo. The ice bar isnt all that. I know its an ice bar, but f*ck me its too cold in there. My beer froze within 5 minutes!
