:lucky:.:|The High Life Cannabis Cup 2011 - Amsterdam|:.:lucky:

Hi everyone! :skin_up:

So, I finally had a few time free... here's my view on what happened last weekend with the winners of the 2nd Sweet Seeds Diary Competetion. We had 2 winners from the UK and other 2 winners from Spain (which I'm sure are also watching this thread). Each one of them took one friend, so they ended up being 8 persons, plus 5 from the Sweet Seeds crew, we were a total of 13.

I think the story has already been told in other thread (if admins think this post should be part of the other thread please send me a PM and I'll copy this to the other thread and delete this one, no problem, thanks) started by our mates that are users of this forum and that have been in Amsterdam for the cup, so I'll focus on posting some fotos I have to post, which I'm sure you're all curious about :stoned:

I would have so many beautiful faces to show... and I would post faces, at least from people that were there working, like artists, dancers, waiters, coffeeshop owners receiving prizes on stage, etc, but maybe it's better to be cautious over here... :unsure:

Friday, 19h00, arriving at Ruigoord, heading for the church...

Almost there... "no autos allowed" says the sign :B):

A hippie community lives there, taking care of the church and renting for every kind of events. Then we can see many little houses in the neighborhood of the church, like this one...

And there she is, the Ruigoord Church, where the winners would receive their prizes a couple of hours later

There were also some tents, with a chill out zone and many exposition stands...

The plant of the year prize is attributed by Soft Secrets, in this year to Cream Caramel, for being a best seller and for the good feedback from growers in magazines and forums. Uk420 is a good example, we have many good experiences with Cream Caramel from users of this Sweet Seeds subforum, as described in many grow diaries posted.

:oldtoker:

I'll be back in a few days with pics from Saturday at Amsterdam, with the visit to Cannabis College and the Hemp Museum :lookaround:

Sweet smokes! Cheers! :hippy:
