Cancel your trip to Amsterdam
You don’t actually need to cancel your trip to Amsterdam (if you’re one of the few that can still afford to travel); just don’t go thinking there’ll be cannabis-filled brownies at every turn. The city of Amsterdam is closing down 43 “coffee” shops that currently operate near schools with kids older than twelve — by order of the Dutch government. Have no fear though — 185 shops will remain open. Plus, now you’ll have more time for the Van Gogh Museum and the fabulous photography exhibits at Foam_Fotografiemuseum Amsterdam. This may well make the journey a little more interesting for Americans who’ll now be forced to walk a tad farther to find what they are looking for.

I’m glad that Foam_Fotografiemuseum Amsterdam museum isn’t actualy about pictures of foam or foam products.
That’s -my- deal.
I found this out recently, too: though Amsterdam has a high number of “coffee shops”, surprisingly, ah… it has, either – like, the quality, of… well, something about snacks.
