05-12-09 22:34 #2857I drove from LA to La Paz several years ago. I think you'll find the trip very interesting. Amazing scenery that changes hourly.

I'm not sure you'll be able to get from Cabo to PVR without completely backtracking all the way back to San Felipe. There used to be a ferry years ago, but I was under the impression that it was no longer in operation. Maybe somebody else could enlighten me, as I may be wrong.
In Baja, I suspect your opportunities for meeting chicas will be few and far between outside of TJ, La Paz and Cabo.
Your trip sounds like a lot of fun!! Enjoy.

the fifth wheeler is a good way to go but must be done with some caution.
1.stay at rv campgrounds. parking along or near the highway at night is only asking for trouble.
2.while driving, stay to the right at all times. truck drivers have the virgin mary on their dash so they tend to cut corners short and fast. they often take their half of the road out of the middle.
3.watch the road; bathtub size potholes are not common, but not uncommon either.
4.do not drive at night. let’s see cows on the road, drunk truck drivers on speed, banditos, and cows on the road. i mention cows on the road twice cause it happens a lot.
there are books about rving through the baja, maybe check them out. soon you'll have to change your moniker to formerlyfrezzin.
buenos suertes

No horror stories were to be told. Just make sure you have MX insurance and licensing, a FMT and your passport. As for the flu scare, it is pretty much over here in Monterrey, MX.
You may want to schedule in some extra time for Ensenada as this is a beautiful tourist town with plenty of MX heritage. Also, The Country Casa Bar and Resort has an abundance of ex-patriates if you ever feel the need for that type of surronding.

Two weeks in Tijuana? Yikes!
I hope the dental stuff goes well. I know a couple of people who swear by their Tijuana dentists. Originally Posted by Freezin

I've never been to the Marriot, but, for a guest policy, I wouldn't take our word for it. Telephone them.
The gang violence is real and not predictable, no matter what any says. Those jerks are pushing the envelope on society's sensibilities. There's no telling what they'll do next. But you can avoid those guys.
The ones that are harder to aviod are young men who seem to prefer Aries to Aphrodite, fighting to love. At night, don't truck outside the Zona Norte. Taxis it instead.

Hiv
It can not be cured but it can be controlled.

Wow, what a great site this is! I ran across ISG a few weeks ago and have been reviewing this forum as well as the Dominican Rep. Forum ever since. I'm convinced that some of you are former "Penthouse Forum" letter contributors (LOL) but all the info you guys provide is really fantastic. Thanks a lot!
Anyway, I'm heading to Tijuana (from Bonnyville, Alberta) once the Flu scare is over to get some dental work done and plan to stay at the Marriot for a 2 or 3 weeks. Can someone let me know if the Hotel is chica friendly and if any of the Escort agencies are any good?
I'm also thinking (always a bad sign! ) of buying a Fifth Wheel trailer and travelling solo (except for the occassional chica or 2! ) thru the Baja to Cabo and then down the West Coast to PVR in Sept. Or Oct. Am I out of my freakin mind to consider this? Will I at least make it to Ensenada alive? I read a lot of negative press online, but normally take it with a grain of salt. Our provincial capital city, Edmonton, has already had something like 38 murders this year, so I figure that you're just as safe in Mexico. I should probably mention that I'm 50 and don't have a lot of mongering experience and I just started learning Spanish with Rosetta Stone.
Any insights or comments are greatly appreciated and thanks again for all your previous posts.

That's fine but I believe I heard about it in one of those similar to afterschool specials about Aids. It could have been Mtv or something. This was many years ago. So I have nothing to back it up other than what I heard back then.

Well, I’m not a scientist on the leading edge of retroviral research, so I’m going to stick to the party line; which is: HIV is a virus; there is no cure at any stage. Being asymptomatic does not mean you are free of the virus. It is still there, it can progress and it can be spread. Originally Posted by Efjayel

I couldn’t find anything on the web that referred to a situation where someone who contracted the virus was free from it. If you have some info to check this out I’m all ears.
Till then, that’s my story and I’m sticking to it.Last edited by Surfnk9; 05-12-09 at 01:08. Reason: spelling

05-12-09 00:16 #2849After reading E's post I realized you said you have not been there in 7 years. There have been lots of improvements since then. The alley is a lot cleaner. They actually have a sidewalk now! The girls dress better now,too (sluttier). 7 years ago I still remember picking up girls in the alley who did not know what thongs were. Now they all have on short skirts and thongs. Originally Posted by Brazilman

It is still hard to get GFE in TJ, but the price cannot be beat.
Come on down man while airfare is cheap and hotel rooms in SD are cheap. Also, with the swine flu scare the border wait can be minimal.
I am going down again tomorrow.

There is no cure for hiv/aids. The meds only suppress the virus but it will always be there. Black people in america make up half of the new hiv cases in america. My guess is they think, like you, that because magic johnson is still alive, that this virus is cured, or you just take some meds and all is well. Not true. Remember MJ has plenty money and works out 2 hours a day. He is not the poster child for everyone that gets hiv. It seems that there are alot of people that look up to MJ and think there is nothing to worry about and are now careless.

I was there Friday from about 4pm. Midnight.
It felt like a regular Thursday night. It was actually pretty good. The ladies were quoting a little lower than normal. While crossing, the Mexican Marines didn't care to put on their medical face-mask. In the zone, no one was wearing face-masks. And on the way back, our border cops did not wear face-masks.
There have been no reported cases in Tijuana or Baja. It seems that the Mexicans are treating this one as a Mexico-city problem. There are news that in Baja, Mexico-city vacationers were getting their cars stoned. How's that for local ism.
AB had the hottest ladies. But the MILFs have mostly disappeared. I got quotes of $50. 60. One quoted me $30, then $20 and cum in her mouth to which I declined for health reasons. There are several new ones that I've not seen since the last time I was here (3 weeks ago).
HK is HK. Same crew for the last 3 months. I was quoted $50. One was surprised that I declined her offer of $40. Hey, I was tired and wanted to watch the damn basketball game! Women, can't they see that we're trying to concentrate?
I suspect the price is also based on how attracted you personally are. While I'd like to pimp my looks, unfortunately I'm actually referring to a general neatness and cleanliness. If you look like a decent person, you pose a less threat to them. If you are relatively in decent shape, you will sweat less and fart less. And if you don't stick a dollar up their ass and pussy, you show a respect (at least for their hygiene).
I think the last point really hits a soft spot with the dancers. Because I notice that I get an enormous amount of attention from them thereafter. Some even give me pecks on the cheeks when I leave.
Ain't that sweet?

But like I've mentioned, early treatment is the best bet.

"When you ask for their health cards, are they reluctant to show them to you? I've never asked to see one, but the topic did come up once. It seems they keep them in the back instead of carrying them around with them"
You are correct. In my experience most of the street girls are reluctant to show their cards even if they are in good standing with the Tijuana Health Department and do keep them in the back, probably due to privacy since it lists their true names etc. However, generally I've been able to persuade the SGs to show those cards, even a couple of time a girl went back to her room to fetch it for me. Usually, I am adamant that not seeing a health card is a deal breaker, and no one wants to lose a client.

I have read and heard that these girls do have to have regular health check and blood testing in order to get a health card to be able to legally work. I haven't caught anything and I don't plan on doing anything to increase my risk of getting anything. As a physician, I can tell you that I have never heard of a cure for HIV. I hope whoever said that misspoke. With the right combination of anti-retorvial medications, it keeps in check and keeps you from converting to AIDS. There is a difference. As you already know, there is also no cure for Herpes Simplex 2 either. Be careful of the information that is dispensed on the internet regarding your health. As a fellow Libra, I hope you enjoy yourself in Tijuana and stay safe.
