I hope all the Rio newbies don't do these meetings before visiting the privées in centro. It could damage the privê situation with a bunch of indiscreet gringos knocking down the doors in centro.

Posts: 40New Intel on the ground
Cartman,
I will do my best to report intel during the world cup week.
I'll be either at Solarium or Monte Carlos Sunday night June 15. I will drop by Balcony, the same Sunday night, to see the talent there after the terma visit. And relay to the board what I see.
Since this is my 1st time in Rio, I can only compare it to my experience at the following-.
FKK Globe. Zurich - Awesome.
Hong Kong Club. Tijuana - Awesome.
Chilly Willlys. Playa Del Carmen. Awesome.
Tequila Rocks. Lima - Awesome.
FKK Manhattan. Frankfurt - Average.
Adelitas. Tijuana - Average.
Sorry ISG veterans, for some of the meet up comments lately. But the more wingmen the merrier! (esp since I am solo the 1st 3 nights I'm in Rio). And I just want to HANG, and drink some beers, with some cool dudes, like I did in Lima 3 months ago.

Posts: 890The amount of noise to signal in this thread is astounding. I had to look back to Azn Safado's post on 25/05 to find decent intel, I think.
With all the people supposedly coming to town in the next few weeks -- and apparently using this forum to do your meet-up planning in public yeesh -- it would be great if you actually post actionable new intel. The SP thread is so much better, go see how they do it! Thanks.

Posts: 40Papi & Gran Merino,
I assume you guys got my PM by now. I can meet both of you at at Balcony Bar.
Papi speaks Portugese so that should come in handy. I don't speak it.
To any veterans out there, it is ok for 4 guys to stroll around VM area? Or should the 4 of us cruise the area in packs of 2?
[QUOTE=Papi Muy Rico;1577503 I am available and willing to meet with you all.
I couldn't get tickets to Spain-Chile so I'll have to watch the game at the FIFA FAN FEST at Copa beach. I can wait for you there and go to Lapa later.
On Thursday 19th, I think a good meeting place would be the FIFA FAN FEST at Copacabana, which should be right in front of Balcony. I think noon would be a good time to meet. If we want to watch the england-uruguay game then we shoulb be at VM BEFORE 4 pm, so we must leave Copa at 3 pm the latest.
You can PM me if you agree or have another plan.[/quote]

Posts: 17Do you have experience in VM? I am actually hoping to meet up with you and Thunder5 before the 19th but I'll send you my details as soon as I land and get a mobile SIM card.

But as some advice, I would again reemphasize that Sunday and Monday are actually the worst days for punting in Rio, and Wed- Fri considered the best. This is in terms of the number of options you have and the quality of girls working. I know that you have to work around the World cup games, but I am worried that you have your scheduling backwards, and could miss out on some things.
Guys, help me out here.

Location is going to be a headache for me. The only affordable place I found to stay in Rio is with a carioca friend's family in Vicente de Carvalho, which is about 90 minutes (according to google maps) from Copa by metro. So getting to Copa and meeting a group should be carefully planned.

Posts: 17I'm ok with anything
I am in Rio 17 - 20 Junho so anything works for me.
BTW, does anyone have a spare ticket for the Spain / Chile match (I am paying of course).

Thats fine with me. It would be nice if anyone else wants to go with us especially the veterans.
I am kinda worried I'll stand out because I am sure I'd staring like a newbie:0.

Posts: 40Balcony Bar Thurs June 19
GrandMenino,
I just sent you a pm. But I am confirming meeting you at Balcony Bar Thurs June 19 so we can go on a run to VM Villa Mimosa.
Keep in mind England plays Uruguay that day on TV in Sao Paolo.
Also I read peak traffic is 5 to 7, so if we catch a taxi at 5 pm, it may take 3 to 4 times as long to get to VM by taxi.

Posts: 40Ah man! The 2nd & 3rd stringers are out on Sunday in the termas
For 48 hrs, I am all elated that a terma is open on a Sunday when I arrive into GIG airport Sunday morning, and now I'm going to see the be & see level squads.
I am in Rio 8 nights, so I was saving Christ, Sugar Mountain, Santa Teresa and Lapa fun for Thurs, Fri, and Sat later in the week. (Going to Maracana stadium on Wed Jun 18 and Sunday June 22) And squeezing in 2 Termas, 1 Prive, 1 VM run, and 1 Balcony girl, is my latest tentative plan.
Manny51 - appreciate your advice. And yes I know, protests, ridiculous world cup alcohol, coconut, and beer prices, and muggings are other obstacles to overcome the 8 nights I'm there.
(still trying to find a wingman for Sunday evening and / or a Monday 11 am prive run).
Finally- (Tuesday I know all bets are off, for prives and termas, as Brazil plays Mexico that day at 4 pm Tues. June 17, so I assume all the terma & prive girls are at home with their loved ones to watch the Brazil national team play).

Posts: 40VM run and drinks June 18 to June 22
MichaelSchoefs & Grandmenino & Papi Muy Rico,
Not sure if you are going to the Spain / Chile game Wed. (I am going).
So Wed June 18 will be difficult for a VM run. (I can meet you guys that night in Lapa or Balcony).
I've heard / read that late afternoon (4 pm?) is an optimal time to go to VM. So Thurs June 19 works for me. England plays Uruguay in Sao Paolo that day, so perhaps we can watch the game in the VM area.
I am in Ipanema area for the week. Meeting up at Copa or Ipanema is convenient for me.
Since Grandmenino 1st mentioned the VM run idea, grandmenino should make the call on day and where to meet. If I can make it I'll go. If I can't oh well. I could always meet you guys for drinks Wed night or Thurs night in any event.
Also I have PM access, so PM me if you like.

2. Even if these places are open on Sunday, I am going to assume that the girls working that day are going to be second and third string, not the starters. If I were you, I would just take the day off and do some general tourist stuff. Rio is a wonderful city. Go see the Christ statue. Stop by the Gracie jujitsu studio. Stuff yourself silly with feijoada without having to worry about looking potbellied with your clothes off. That's what I say.
