    Quick question regarding pop up shop. Will there a MASSIVE queue for this or can we just stroll by at 5pm to pick up a t-shirt/poster?

    Looks like the Pop Up store is in Westerpark. Not exactly in the center... Tram 10 goes over there.

    There are much better pain relievers available in Amsterdam... Ask any Coffeeshop Bud-tender for his best Indica and the pain will fade... ;)

    Ya know I'm becoming increasingly concerned that I'm going to have trouble finding a coffee shop for actual coffee while in Amsterdam. While I have no problem with the green, it's really not my thing.
