A Coffeeshop Conversation in Amsterdam

While Amsterdam has for a long time been noteworthy for its nicotine-recolored "diminish shaded bistros," these days "coffeeshop" bits of learning a place where the Dutch aggregate to buy and smoke maryjane.

A round table at the front window was stacked with a United Nations of guests sharing voyagers' stories blended by swizzlesticks of smoke. The table was a commotion of tea compartments, maps, and manuals. From the looks of the ashtray, they'd been there a while.

Taking a seat at the bar by a hostile forty-something biker and a Gen-X kid with two holes in his body for each one in mine; I felt more like a voyager than I had for the length of the day. The bartender, shaking a shaved head and a one-inch goatee, invited me in English and passed me the menu.

I demonstrated a cut on bit of paper. "What's 'Aanbieding: Swarte Marok?'"

"The kind of the day is Black Moroccan," he said.

Swarte Marok, Blond Marok, White Widow, Northern Light, Stonehedge, Grasstasy...so contrasting choices, and that is beginning late the wiet (pot). Hashish conclusions filled the base of the menu.

Above me dangled a little Starship Enterprise from a wreath of spiky takes off. Moreover, behind the bartender stood a piece of much-used and unmistakably never-cleaned bongs helping me to review the hubbly-bubblies that litter Egyptian teahouses. With a flick of my finger, I set the Enterprise shaking.
