PhotoHunt 99: Party

This party took place in one of Amsterdam’s famous bars and coffee shops, with some old friends and hubby’s workmates from around the world during the worldwide meeting.
It shall be noted that in the Netherlands, the use of soft drugs – cannabis in all its forms (marijuana, hashish, hash oil) has been admitted for the personal use only; it is legal! And openly sold and smoked in Amsterdam’s coffee shops which can legally store up to 500 g of marijuana and can sell up to 5 grams to adults over 18. (We didn’t smoke, ok!) These coffee shops offer several kinds of weed and hash, and usually there is a “menu” to choose from. The prices vary …

I love oysters. They are one of my favourites. I have a little joke about oysters. There was an oyster couple. The Oyster husband asked her wife, “Darling, years ago you had a figure like a coke bottle. Oyster wife answered, “ Yes darling I still do, the only difference is that before I was 300ml now I’m 1.5 liter”.
I learned a lot more about oyster through Gulf oysters . This website provides a thorough education to the oyster consuming public about oyster. One of the things I’ve learned is that eating raw or undercooked oysters may cause illness or even death due to Vibrio vulnificus bacteria. Be Informed, cautious, smart, sure and be oyster aware.
