Phor, I have been looking at the CL ads and never called because I don't know if the pictures are fake. You probably have the most experience with these ads. What percentage of the girls you called weren't what the picture showed. What percentage were bad experiences. Some of the girls are really good looking if the pictures are accurate.

I think I might try this approach and see how it works out next time I'm in Tijuana. I would love to see other parts of Tijuana other than the zona and around the revo area. I hope I get a personable chica like the one you got. Thanks for the info.

You're very welcome. Happy to oblige.

Actually, I started doing this to save some money. These are all "friends with benefits" semi-pro chicas and not really LTR material.

I was dropping around $300 whenever I visited the zona, and then heading home when the funds were played out. Drinks, fichas, food, a couple of arribas, etc. I know some guys spend a LOT more than that.

Now, for the same money, or often less, I can get a decent room at a hotel, hang out all night with a personable chica, eat well, drink far too much, and experience parts of Tijuana that one would never see if one stays in the zona. What's not to like?

Another thing I learned this trip: she has a rather good job with a major corporation, in their customer service department. Much better than anything a zona chica could get, as she's bilingual Spanish / English and very fluent in both. It pays about $200 pesos per DAY, for a 6-day work week. $1, 000 pesos for a night out and a good time represents almost 1 week's salary. A good deal for her, and far less than most guys pay for a couple of arribas in HK or AB.

Dude, your Craiglist adventures are quite entertaining to say the very least! Thanks for posting these outings and finding new places to boot.

I stop the dating stuff, too much money spent, and a relationship is the last thing in need in my already fucked up life.

Thanks again!

I fought the gawd-awful Friday traffic and assorted wrecks on the 5 for 3+ hours, finally parking at the UETA lot. I picked up a Libre, checked into the Ticuan and called up my next Craigslist date.

I fought the gawd-awful Friday traffic and assorted wrecks on the 5 for 3+ hours, finally parking at the UETA lot. I picked up a Libre, checked into the Ticuan and called up my next Craigslist date.

She finally showed up and we got to know one another over some snacks and beers. Then upstairs to further get acquainted and plan our evening. I learned a lot about what it's like to come to the USA as a very small child, illegally, and to be deported 35 years later. Talk about a Born In East L. A. Story. Wow. Got to hand it to her. She's tough.

We headed out to Bar 20, which is a really great place, with really interesting cocktails. The downside was as it began to get busier around 11 the music changed to a mish-mash of techno trance crap. Killed the whole vibe, IMHO. It cooled down outside, but the inside was even colder with the A / C. She wanted to leave. I suggested we go to a place we noted while in the taxi.

She remembered the approximate location and. 20 pesos later, the cabbie dropped us in front of Sinatra's Piano Bar. Cool.

Nice joint, specializes in martinis and other cocktails. Large piano in one corner, lots of low seats and tables, tuxedoed wait staff. We hooked up with a great waiter (also a deportee from San Diego) named Carlos. If you go, ask for him and tip him well. He understands the meaning of good service.

This evening they had two female singers. One belted out all sorts of classic Spanish love songs, which my date loved and sang along to most. The other singer did mostly English-language standards. She sang her version of Whitney Houston's I Will Always Love You, and nailed it. All in all, the music was very good, and a nice change of pace from the raucous bars of calle sexta.

Around 2:30-ish. 8 martinis, a cheese plate and 1, 045 pesos later, it was time to push on. BTW. Sinatra's is located immediately adjacent to Abe Lincoln's left hand. You can't miss it. Highly recommended for a nice change of scenery. Not cheap, but reasonable prices for high-quality top shelf cocktails.

We grabbed a cab and 70 pesos later (apparently there was a gringo tax) we were standing on 6th street. Popped into Mezcalera and had a shot of mint-flavored mescal. Take my advice and don't try that at home. Or anywhere else. Nasty.

They were closing, so it was off to Sabor Latino for a quick beer and a couple of dances. By now, honey-bunny was pretty smashed.

We headed back to the hotel. A hot dog cart was calling our name. Mmmmm. Nothing like a Mexican bacon hot dog with the works, and a grilled jalapeno, when you're shit-faced.

On the way past she decided we needed to go into Las Pulgas. Luckily I persuaded her that we really needed to get back to the hotel before we both passed out. This was around 4-ish, IIRC.

We made it up to the room, cleaned up a bit, hit the hay and, despite the alcohol, managed to get through some pretty good boinking. She's very vocal, which is kinda cool.

Woke up all too early with the dipshit cleaning staff making all kinds of unwanted noise in the hall. Honey-bunny worked her magic and did something few other chicas can, which is to wake up Junior for a morning romp. He's not a morning person, and never has been. Cool!

We hit up Praga for some coffee and then Caesar's for a couple of their signature salads. Then had a stroll, slipped her 1, 000 pesos and grabbed a cab to the border.

Holy shit the traffic was bad. Even the SENTRI car line looked to be over 1/2 hour wait. The regular line looked to be 3+ hours.

Despite extremely shitty traffic heading north, I made it home in one piece. A very memorable weekend. Can't wait to go back.

[Phordphan]

Least than a month ago, I parked there on a Friday and Saturday, and it was only 14 bucks total. Maybe something has changed?

No, I did the same thing this weekend. It's $7 on Friday, so if you park on Friday it's $7 for each 24 hour period. If you park on Saturday it's $10 for each 24 hour period.

[CurryMonster]

i think everyone here has combed almost every inch of every bar in the zona. a secret room where **** girls are available for a price? wow. that's a story that, as they say in the journalism business, is too good to check. sure, **** girls are available in every country on the face of the earth if you know where to look. but i'm giggling at the mental image of sneaking into ab, slinking to the back room and knocking on a door. the judas hole opens up.

it's a shame the us is so hung up on it's journalism as business, rather than trying to focus on real information.

i have had a guy offer me young girls while walking out of the zone going hk, past adelitas and keep going. anyone's guess as to whether his lead would get that, or just a mickey laced drink and a quick parting from your wallet instead. no intention of finding out.

i've got socal work come up suddenly, hoping to be in the zona tuesday night. anyone else going to be there?

hoping that getting back into the us on the eve of 4th july will be better than next sunday's scrum.

[TomJackin]

It's 10 bucks on a Saturday now. Still 24 hours, still much better deal than JIB. But hard to find a spot on a weekend.

[Phordphan]

Yes, that lot is 7 bucks for 24 hours. I park there if I plan on staying 2-3 nights in Tijuana.

[TomJackin]

Yep, they have gottem me too. That's why I now park on the other side of the interstate where you get many more hours for about the same price. UETA, I think.

[HorseTrader]

I once missed the parking deadline by one minute! A few seconds if anything. Bastard still charged me anyways even after much pleading. If I hadn't loitered in my car fiddling with the radio and I would have been $7 dollars richer. I was pissed.

[Efjayel]

I was out of that damn parking lot with 8 minutes to spare. The lot attendant and I were both in shock!

Here was our conversation:

Me: Good evening sir (with a big smile).

Agent: Good evening (no smile) , are you bringing anything back from Mexico?

Me: God, I hope not!

Agent: Well, that eliminates my next question of what you were doing in Mexico (big smile).

Me: Yes, it appears that we can wrap things up at this point.

Agent: It appears that way, have a good evening.

Well played sir, well played

[Ath Trainer]

Just took a taxi from that spot. Also back from the Zona to that spot. 50 pesos each way. Tomjackin I looked all over for you. I hit 2 SW for 200 pesos each and one chick in Adelitas for $50+$13 for the room for 30 minutes.

All of the 5 chicas I went with this past wk, asked / accepted. 60. 2 were hk girls, the other 3 from ab. No negotiation to get to that. With all the recent talk about girls asking .80, I was happy not having to deal with that part of the negotiation. Not my strong point. Gave me more energy to concentrate on menu options.

[TomJackin]

As I was walking by the parking lot attendant while heading to the crossing, I stopped and told that dude,"Today, I will be out of this lot within 8 hours dammit!" He just laughed because he knows my bad habit of overstaying. But this time I was determined.

After having my favorite taco in the world, I was about to pay the guy that collects the money, when some bewildered train wreck looking dude came up to me with some coins in his hand. 2 quarters and other small peso coins. He said he needed all pesos so he could buy a taco for some other stand. I told him I didn't have pesos, only dollars. Then he said, yes, a dollar would be better. I said,"Dude, make up your fucking mind!" He puts the coins in my hand and it was far short of a dollar, but I gave him a buck anyway. The guy that collects the money finds this very amusing and is having a good laugh. I asked him,"What is so damn funny? These damn coins are going directly to you to pay for my taco!" He stopped laughing.

Eight hours; time was ticking.

Hong Kong:

A lot of new faces and asses to play with. It amazes me how HK just reloads the club with hot women on a regular basis. I had a few hotties come by to say hello, or more like to get a drink or a buck. There were a few that I planted my face in their ass. They always seem surprised when then get the tongue; wonder why? Maricóand was in good spirits, he was working three tables of regular customers at the same time, me included. But I knew I had to cut my HK time if I wanted to get out of Tijuana within 8 hours. So I was leaving earlier than ever before and Maricóand looked like a sad puppy that was being left alone for the very first time.

Eight hours; time was ticking.

Tropical:

While in HK, I was texting back and forth with a new girl that I like in BT. I texted her to come to the door so I would not get attacked by the wife when I walked in the place. I crossed the street and she was sitting on a motorcycle outside. Walked in with her and the meseros were swarming like vultures. As I was swatting them away, I found my guy. As the new squeeze and I were chatting, I could not remember how we got started in the first place. I asked her,"Have we fucked before?" She said,"No, you would remember if we had!" Thus, a date and time was set!

Eight hours; time was ticking.

After a tasty spicy shrimp taco, I decided to find out what was happening at the Five-star Monitos! There was a beauty standing next to the door. I think her name was Jessica. I told her that my cock and balls needed mouth service. She gave me a good rate and off we went hand in hand just like a newlywed couple. When in the room, she asked me if I wanted her to get undressed and I said,"Oh hell no!" She worked hard for the money and did a damn good job; I tipped her for the stellar performance. Went to clean up; no fucking water! I start yelling out the door to turn on the damn water and Jessica thinks this is funny. I reminded her she has more to clean up than me; not funny anymore.

Eight hours; time was ticking.

Las Chavelas:

Going prego hunting! The last few weeks, I've been hanging with one of the girls I liked when she was pregnant. I did my best to try to help her out when I could. Months later, she is back to work and we got reunited thanks to my older brother. One night, we were drinking and she got up for whatever reason, so I practiced my shitty Spanish on two girls that were sitting behind me. Well, one of the cuties behind me happened to be 3 months pregnant. What in the fuck is in the water in Tijuana? Later, she sat next to me and I told her I would help her out when I could. She was scared and crying. I'm such a fucking sucker for mothers that are in trouble. Anyhow, last week she hung out with me, I put minutes on her phone, and gave more money than I usually pay.

So I walk in LC looking for prego and x-prego. Neither to be found. I found out that prego gathered up enough money for a one way ticket home; which made me happy. I'm sitting with my new cutie in LC, and I get a text from the x-prego and she wants to meet in an hour at a fast food place on Revolution. Not going to happen, I would get out of there in less than 8 hours, I was determined! Checked the time, where does the time go? I haven't made it to CC, Gloria, or Nikkis and it is already time to head back; I'm throwing out the "Not Fucking Fair" flag!

Less than 8 hours, I can pull this one off!

The only thing that could stop me from overstaying my 8 hours would be a border agent.

Here was our conversation:

Me: Good evening sir (with a big smile).

Agent: Good evening (no smile) , are you bringing anything back from Mexico?

Me: God, I hope not!

Agent: Well, that eliminates my next question of what you were doing in Mexico (big smile).

Me: Yes, it appears that we can wrap things up at this point.

Agent: It appears that way, have a good evening.
