Ooh, I could use a good couchlock! Returning to work after 3 wks of going "soft", has my back all jammed up.
I usually have 3-4 small jars of different herb for daily consumption within reach, but when we left, I hid what I had in my stash spot, as we had a non-smoker watering our plants and such while away. When I returned, I dug my arsenal out, this time including the bit of PP I had stashed, and that was what I smoked 1st on returning! :D Still very tasty, and after not getting high since Dahab, I blasted right away! :kos:

After Dahab, we ferried over to Jordan, where we floated in the Dead Sea, (lowest spot on earth!) hiked a few days thru wonderous Petra, and visited beautiful Wadi Rum, the incredible desert area, where we 4-wheeled insanely, before camping out w/ bedouins.
The Sheesha pipe is used primarily for flavored tobacco in both countries, and, sadly, that's all our bedouin hosts had to offer.



Petra is amazing! It would be real fun to do shrooms here, me thinks! Seeing things like this 4000 yr old iconic facade half eroded along w/ the natural erosion of the surrounding sandstone is beyond words. Wish I had alot longer to spend here.



Thinking of spring and the greenery to come.

Hi guys,


Turbulent times at the Canna Embassy at the moment.
New gouvernement. As it looks likes not as a-social as the former gouvernement, but a more left liberal christian/socialist gouvernement.
But the "haunt" for growshops and coffeeshops is still going on as an afterglow of the old gouvernement.
So just wait for a while to see how the new gouvernement will aproach the Cannabis and legalize issue. I expect a little more firm statement of the socialist.
I am a "recreative" smoker of Cannabis over 34 years now and when I started to smoke I said that Cannabis would be legal in 5 years. OK we have coffeeshops now that sell openly Cannabis, but the backdoor is still not legal and the selling only "tolerated".
15 years ago I could still grow uptill 49 plants in my garden if I wanted and carry 30 grams in my pocket.
There are still parts of countries around us now that accept 30 grams in your pocket for your own use. So the progressive and tolerance behaviour in the Netherlands is slowly fading awy, but not gone YET!!!!!!!
So I will keep on lobbying towards the politics here in the Hague, local as national as well to inform and I hope the ignorance of the politcians will fade away.....
Next weekend 23 en 24 of february I will be at the Highlife Hemp Fair in the RAI at Amsterdam.

Next month time to germinate the seeds for next growing season! Sun is shining overhere at the moment.... New York how are you doing?
Esben I will grow the Danish/Snow White cross, the Afghan/Snow White cross, and I still have to make a choice between Purple Princess/Snow White cross and the Green Ambassador/Snow White cross. Still don't know which strain to cross it with.
Highliter thnx for sharing.
Just great still to see all at this thread..
Keep on growing folks, take care and stay safe........

Peace and Respect, G.A.

p.s.: Happy (Chineze) New Year....

Hi guys,

5 plants is the limit for own use for one house hold.
5 grams to carry in your pocket and your fine..
In some places and aspecialy in the city centres you can get a ticket for publicly drinking, or smoking.
So for the moment I will grow uptill five plants at the Canna Embassy terrace and keep on lobbying for the legal state of Cannabis.
A god given seed prohibitted by the arrogance of the human mind....

At the moment I am at Blue & White, a nice coffeeshop near the beach of Scheveningen. They got their own sound studio.
A nice combination. Getting high and producing music!

I would ecstatic if I found out I could grow 5 plants on my balcony...... Still, this is not the way it should be though..... Why spend money to restrict the number of plants? You can have it but then you can't?

Esben, some scerene views there! Good shootin! Could you throw them up on the nature lovers' thread if ya have time?

I love that first shot too, captures the emotions of the time..... :D

Lovely shots, esben, per usual! :D I'm a man of the woods, and the trees speak to me. And then that daub of spring w/ the snow crocuses, ahhh...
The last shot tho, will indeed look better w/ a blanket of snow! Hope to see one tomorrow!
Pipeline, ya, we had that spot to ourselves every night, all memorable ( in a hazy way :smoker: )

Here's a few more travel shots.
I loved visiting this temple @ night, and wished I'd seen them all @ night!



A shot of the Siq, the narrow canyon you walk thru to get to Petra. It's 1200 m long, then opens up to the amazing Treasury. These walls are about 150m high.





Here's some local vendors within Petra. They can be very entertaining or pests, depending on your disposition. They trek thier wares in @ dawn everyday. See the donkey in back?




OK Max, your turn! :wink:
