General Reports

[BrotherMouzone]

Was down in Zona Norte for a few days last week (stayed at Cascadas). Some quick, general thoughts:

- Adelitas is still closed. Shame as that's my favorite club (prefer the laid-back atmosphere to the nightclub atmosphere of HK, even if the girls aren't quite as hot). Have heard that they could be in preparation to re-open within the next few weeks but that's just a rumor I heard from a couple of chicas. (They are telling me there are people still inside working, cleaning, preparing for a possible re-open.).

Chicas were all over the place in terms of why Adelitas closed so not even worth repeating those rumors. The rumors I heard were nothing new and are stuff that's been repeated here in previous posts anyway. I do tend to believe the rumor one chica told me several weeks ago (that I also posted to this board) that the HK owners and some other rich businessmen down there are working together to get Adelitas (HK's main competition) closed. It's just what makes the most sense and the chica who told me this is educated (went to law school though did not finish), mature, credible, and was confident in what she was saying. Still just a rumor though.

-Am seeing that HK is in the process of expanding to become and even bigger club. From the outside, saw workers doing construction inside on what looked like a brand new area of HK that will open in the future. The expansion appears to be going out towards the curb on the side opposite the side that Adelitas and the church are on.

-Speaking of that side of HK, I see that the popular HK taco stand is back in its normal position on the curb adjacent to HK. (The taco stand had moved for several months I think to the curb between Chicago and Adelitas while work on the sidewalk was being completed.).

-Pet peeve of mine at Cascadas going back a few years now is that the room keys often expire prior to check out. For example in a 3-day stay last week, I had to return to the front desk twice to geta replacement room key because they expired after one day. Seems like the front desk has a habit of not setting the room keys up for the correct number of days. Don't know if anyone else who stays at Cascadas regularly experiences thi. S.

-Noticed that the price of drinks slightly increased at HK and Tropical. Not all that much, but did notice on the big drink list boards that drinks have increased by a $1 or $2, at least for the stuff I'm used to drinking. (For example, Dos Equis used to be $4, now is $5.).

-In Cascadas, the number of drinks in the small room refrigerators has decreased from 10 to 6. Was told by the front desk that this is standard going forward due to the increased price of drinks. So once you check into your room, would confirm that you have 6 drinks in your refrigerator (instead of 10).

Where are you getting these numbers from? Any links for brothel info en NYC?

Some of the flushing queens nyc brothels that were open in same spot for 15 yrs closed down in last year or 2 when I went back. But like you said there's so many open now you wouldn't be able to keep track of them all. All these Asian girls come here and can work for minimum wage in a restaurant or make $400 a day. Maybe the hot ones make triple. In general the approach of law enforcement, in the city, not the suburbs is, "these prostitutes are victims of trafexking, lies to get them here, we must give them shelter, housing, quick path to citizenship, even if they were here illegally. So there's not many if any woman getting in legal trouble anymore. If there's any men getting in trouble I haven't read about it. There's a forum called utopia guide where the guys post like Tijuana but I don't read it because 99% of what I find interesting about zona norte is its a different country.

I usually visit Tijuana once a week and normally go late afternoon in the the evenings. I only have my passport stamped once in 10 years. I normally go with streetwalkers. These days I have regular girl that I have been seeing for a few years now. The walkers are quite rare these days. If passport stamping is a concern then get a passport card.

What? Out of how many times? What's your trick? What do you do? What time do you usually go? So many questions.

There are over 600 brothels openly operating in NYC, I think raids there are a thing of the past.

I disagree. The money in pesos has gone up from 16 to 18 per USD. So that $5 has gone from 80 to 90 pesos.

That should be enough for the short ride when compared to Uber.

But these days I only take the limo from HK and my $3 tip does the trick.

I avoid Tijuana taxis in general because I am disinterested in paying the gringo tax, or threatened, or being taken to a run down bar in the middle of nowhere. Or even to a police shakedown as described by some guys on this board.

Take Uber or the HK limo, or the Chicago SUV.

I went on a Sunday night a little bit past 9 pm. Pretty sure PD doesn't do any stings at that time and day, the place and rest of the building was practically empty. In a sting you wanna catch as many people as possible. Also it's in El Cajon where prostitutes roam the streets freely without cops harassing them. Prostitution isn't high on their priority list.

Did you meet her at AMP in San Diego.

Yeah I wrote a report under Massage Parlors on the SD / USASG board if you want to check it out.

You can apply for a passport card. Its useful for Mexico and Canada. No fuss no mas.

Yes, but as I said, I can't right now. If I understand correctly I need to send my passport book to get passport card. But I need my passport book right now for some international travel in 1 month.

Not worth the risk of getting caught up in a sting, arrested, going to jail, photo taken by the local LE, and put on a sex predator list. No thanks.

Was going to go down to TJ last night but ended up taking a big tittie Asian girl up for a test drive here in San Diego. Sex was covered but got DFK + BBBJ included, total damage was $190 for hhr. Hands down the biggest pair of natural tits I've ever seen on an Asian. A little pricier than what I spend on a HK girl but saved the gas and hassle of traveling into Mexico and dealing with the line, didnt have to tip anybody and didnt have to deal with meseros hounding me for drinks. An old coworker of mine asked if I could accompany him down to the zona this Saturday so I'll probably hold off on going until then.

I have only had my passport book stamped once in all my trips to Tijuana.

[MongerSocal]

Well, that's depressing. I guess I need reasons to visit Tijuana that will sound good to wife, if she checks my passport. Do you guys know of other good reasons? Sight seeing? Beaches?



Any insight on where I should keep my passport book? Front pocket of jeans? Should I buy a money belt.

Thanks!

I'm currently on the "dental work" excuse to visit Tijuana. Next trip I'm thinking someone birthday party or quince LOL.

Occasionally my 6 month tourist pass that's what 35 40 dollars now runs out and I will go into mexixo without it. Its typically 70% time I get a stamp. Of course for the guys who don't know, this 6 month pass they sell, let's you walk in on the Mexican side without filling paperwork out each time, and it avoids confused stamps. But they still stamp it for the Initial day when you buy the 6 month pass. I've never had any success when asking them not to stamp and I've asked about 8 times. One time I walked into Mexico with a 70 year old female friend and she had never been to mexixo. She didn't get a stamp. I did. So it may have to do with age.
