From what I can remember it was funkin' awesome!

I don't really remember any names of any bars or clubs in particular, but there are lots of "bar tours" which go around a few places and get you a free drink in each place. Worth looking at because they are about 20-25 euros for 4-5 venues. Whereas if you went in some of these places you would have to pay entry, and then around 5-7 euros for a beer... (Some places to give you a free drink token when you pay to go in though)
There was a bar opposite a condom museum that was doing two bottles of becks for 4 euros, wasnt too bad in there, had a pool table and stuff.
During the day there looked like there was a lot to do, we went to the Amsterdam Dungeons and one of "those museums"...

Then there are obviously the "coffee shops" if you are into that sort of thing too.

Lots of sneaker shops, but they didnt have any amazing adidas anywhere, not that I saw anyway, nothing you couldnt get back home cheaper...
I never found the originals store during the day, though I do remember going by it at night.

There is also a well known district I would suggest having a walk around, it was very interesting. But remember, DO NOT look in a blue window, you will not like what you see... red windows are ok to look in, blue ones are definatley not! No cameras out in that district though, it will not go down well with the people in the windows, or their "minders"...

While you are out there cracky, quite a few people will try and sell you coke, just say no and don't look at them, if you look at them they will follow badgering you for a long way before finally pissing off. The groom made this mistake but it resulted in him being knocked out by a disgruntled drug dealer, because the groom didnt want to buy any charlie the dealer smacked him in the mouth. Instead of just saying no, the groom stopped and looked the dealer in the eye and said no, so the dealer followed him pulling on his arm, the groom pushed him, and the next thing you know he got belted in the mouth and the dealers cronies were everywhere...
All in all though, dispite spending a lot of time sat around in a dutch hospital, it was a good trip!

Never noticed a blue window before.

RE: So.. Go on, spill it.. what you been doing? - Samo - 22-06-09

trannies and cross-dressers...

RE: So.. Go on, spill it.. what you been doing? - mr.pure - 22-06-09

Oh my days.
I wasn't expecting that.
Figured it'd just be men.
Not that I'll ever be going back but I'm glad you told me.
Vaguely remember different coloured windows and just figured it was a personal choice.

Holy shit - I knew something was up with that ugly bird we saw in a blue window there. Learn something new everyday.

RE: So.. Go on, spill it.. what you been doing? - cracky - 22-06-09

Wow, sounds eventfull, yeh someone warned me about the blue windows, and to be honest the drug dealers also, i am more alarmed by 5 to 7 euros for a beer ah well, i will see what happens when i get there, bring it on...............

I was going to spring for the purple 80's too but they were a bit overpriced.
Sneakers of note that I found were a pair of UNDFTD, FP, Dassler, PP, Tsubasa, Warhol, Goofy, Tokyo, Boston and London 35ths.

You saw all of those in Malaysia! Were they real?
And mr pure I saw these grey eighties in the outlet, they had a few sizes too.

Yeah they were (not all in the one store though), plenty of obvious fakes in
the markets but lots of legit stores in the big shopping centres.

It seems sneaker culture is reasonably big over there.
The UNDFTD were 2200 MR which is about $620 USD or 381 GBP.
