Cartagena Reports

was torn down. The entire area from Riquissimo to Edificio Antares is being demolished to make way for a retail/residential complex. That makes four buildings under construction in Laguito alone.

Great post donut! SO TRUE about how a puta can morph into novia in a heartbeat! Better for them to expect payment than expect fidelity I say!

I also liked your comment about what goes down in the kitchen at that hotdog stand (often the only place nearby to get a bite if you re out real late).

Treeshark: Ditto what Robhay said about the insecurity of certain youngsters. Colombia is NOT like America because the older guy CAN compete. Unlike in SE asia where being old is a PLUS more often than not, IMHO age IS a factor in Colombia, but nothing like in the wasteland.

MSJDogs: Easiest way to find Miami is to look for the TOWER of the University. As you face the entrance to the building, walk towards your left and on the right side of the stret just past the first intersection is Miami (Bright Green door, unless they repainted it). VERY hit or miss spot, but worth a look (as is the courtyard of the university but I probably shouldn't post about that here).

But my point is, this girl went through a transformation where she did not want me to pay her (cool!), but where she did not want me taking other girls home (not cool!).

That's where you went from the "girlfriend experience" to the "girlfriend" experience. Though actually, I think the deal for you was worse than you think: the fact that she didn´t want you to pay her directly doesn´t mean she doesn´t want you to pay at all. You just pay indirectly, instead. But no taking other girls, of course.

A while ago, I wrote about it in the Rio de Janeiro section:

Some things don't change regardless of where you are.

Am staying at the Cartagena Hilton Labor Day weekend (using Hilton points). I have seen conflicting reports about it being girl friendly. Can anyone elaborate?

Thanks for the info.

I would say not friendly.

On the upside, the facilities are probably the nicest in town, you will enjoy.
At the door to the hilton are usually not one, but several security guards- we got pretty chummy with them (spent a week using the ATM/restaurant/pool despite staying across the street in dumpy apt). There are also lots of families/reg. tourists around. You would get the hellafied bug-eye trying to check in a chica.

However; I did have occasion to bribe one of these guards, they are nice guys.
If you are discreet (or have a steady novia/gfe) and take care of the guards, you can probly swing it.

However if drunk coming back @3am from LDV, no way man.

That was a really good story actually...and who cares how old you are, you can never be too old to live out a lifelong dream right? Guys on here making fun of "old farts" are prob. just a little insecure about themselves and their futures.

Here's a thought: Instead of displaying your eating inferiority complex, just tell us where your favorite spots are and the places that are farthest away from them; that we both will be happy.

I can tell you, if you start taking the LDV girls out to dinner they sometimes go through an interesting transformation. I was taking one girl out to various tourist places Restaurante Pelikanos and one of the restaurants up on the Cartagena ramparts, as well as late night Perros Hawaianos at the restaurant near LDV (don't think too much about what's going on in the kitchen, it will kill the experience). I do enjoy the Perro Hawaiano, but your mileage may vary. But my point is, this girl went through a transformation where she did not want me to pay her (cool!), but where she did not want me taking other girls home (not cool!).

The one that I know is in Centro. You walk out the door of Tu Candela and take a left for about 4 blocks. Go left one block and it is on the corner. It's not a casa, only a club. Never saw any daytime action there or much of any action at any time.

I did bring a chica home from there a couple of years ago. She was hot and a decent fuck. When we finished, I asked for her number. She wrote down 200.000. Then I asked for her numero de telefono, ignored the 200.000, and gave her 80K.

Sorry there is no crispy creme stands in cartagena, nor TGIF Friday's.....

Only Yankees waste time getting fat eating 'chain' food and if you see me in or near an American restaurant, please biotch slap me...but now Crispy Creme...lawd have mercy that's a shame...birthplace of that great heathen food is about hour from the house...."HOT DONUTS NOW"

I do think that if you get hungry on the beach in CTG, that the touts will sell you shrimp by the kilo..... I think.

Question now: is it a good price...come on, don't hold back on us with the info.

You have no sense of humor do you Ticasonar?

I thought my last post dripped with humor; I really tried :)

I've got limited amount of time before I become PaisaSonar, just purchased a tix wallago, so I need you great information banks to stay on topic and dole out the goods. Please!

Changing Subjects,

Does anyone know the aprox. location of Club Miami? I here that it is like a casa but more daytime possibilities. Correct me, if I am mistaken...

Like Dean Wermer said in Animal House to Flounder....

"Fat, Drunk and Stupid is no way to go through life son"

But Dean Wermer was W-R-O-N-G. To each his own, but I'm about done with your jealous attack on drunk fatboys.

[QUOTE=Treeshark]Gentleman, so what if CTG gets a Del Rey South. No one is going to point a gun at your head and make you go there. I think that I might even enjoy a Del Rey in CTG. I enjoyed the one in CR. Besides any chicas that I would see there I would know to AVOID.

That is your opinion, a lot of other people on this board, go to Cartagena, because it is not like San jose, If they enjoy San Jose so much and the great Hotel Rey so much, then stay put. Keep the Fake rolexes, drunk texans or Floridians in San Jose.

It is kind of like securing our borders, keep the illegals out. Well Cartagena is our border, "keep the fat and drunk Del rey gringos out"

I said "be nice", not "stupid" ... big difference. Suerte

[Sylvester]

I can remember when the Hotel del Rey of San Jose was the over-flow hangout for the ugly chicas that couldn't get into the Key Largo ... back when it was good ... way back.

Cartagena can still be magical and fun but OBVIOUSLY it's getting more crowded and going downhill .... but that's for the guys who knew it when it was trully awesome.
For the newer guys it's no big deal ... for the San Jose del Rey guys its no big deal.

I'm off to other more "hidden" places ... but will always have fond memories of Cartagena.

Hey TREESHARK ... I liked your story of meeting that chica who turned out to work in LDV. Goes to show that if you treat these chicas nicely, no matter what their employment might be, they will treat you soooooo much better.
Some guys will NEVER understand that.

To all ..... Suerte!

I in no way advocate treating the chicas badly however I am not so sure being extra nice is the way to go either. I have seen it many times, Mr Niceguy gets pegged as a pendejo and personal banking machine. I have also seen where the extended family also juice the gringo for $$$. Nothing wrong with being nice, just not too nice.
