Angeles City

What's your definition of "best"? Alongside all the options that you have listed, the easiest is just to get your hotel to organise a door to door pickup.

My definition of "best" would be a mix between cheap price and comfort. Honestly, I've never bothered organizing hotel pickup because it's usually the most expensive option. I prefer to save some money on transportation so I can spend it on beer or hooking up with girls (not necessarily in that order).

I've read that there are moto taxis in Cebu that can take you from the airport to the center. Are there any in Clark too? (I'm traveling with a small backpack).

After a couple of days of barhopping and being thoroughly unimpressed I stumbled into Baccara around midnight last night. I could hardly believe my eyes. It was like Angeles of yesteryear. Mostly young, cute, flat stomached, hot babes. Not a stretch mark or tattoo to be seen. I'm wondering if this was just a fluke, one off. Maybe the Korean guys were all busy doing something else and left an unusual number of lookers untouched. I am in Cebu now so can't investigate if this if this was just one time thing or even a mirage. I had a great time with near perfect 10's (tuand I'm picky) on each arm. Unfortunately I had a regular girl coming to my room later. So I couldn't fully exploit this unexpected find.

You really don't have to worry much, they will all cost about the same and you will get mobbed even before you step outside. Just pick the one that looks safest to you. If you really want to save some pesos you could hike it out and flag something down, but it just really isn't worth it. I usually (in the past) just go with the van ride share that way I get to meet and chat with a bunch of backpackers. BTW if you think you will get ripped, just look around, there is usually a sign that clearly states what the price should be posted near the exit.

That's was the old Clark airport. Clark has a new modern airport now, style after the Cebu airport. A friend of mine told me she had trouble getting a ride from there as the airport is not very busy. Maybe you better arrange transport in advance.

The new airport is further out. Not sure if it is serviced by jeepneys anymore. Hopefully there will be Blue Taxis lined up. Be prepare to pay around 500.

Its been a while, as bars just don't do it for me anymore.

Thanks for the photos and the good memories.

Recognize some of the girls and definitely remember the girls had a time of wearing the white Hawaiian outfits.

At a guess I would date these photos at being around the year 2010.

Have to fully agree with your good self that Angeles has changed so much in the last years and easy to see why the old guard have such a torrid time in accepting what Angeles has become.

Still, for those that lived the Angeles golden years we still have our memories to fall back on.

Enjoy.

Hey guys,

Can you tell me what's the best way to get from Clark Airport to Angeles City (Walking Street area)?

Thanks for your answer.

In the past (2016), I got scammed by several taxi drivers in Manila and Cebu. But it's not just a problem exclusive to the Philippines, in the countries I've traveled to around the world, the only problems I've had have always been with my dear taxi drivers. Since apps like Uber, Cabify, Grab came out, I only travel with them, and my wallet and mental health thank me! Haha Anyway, when I land in Clark, I'll see what I do, hopefully, I won't get ripped off as a newbie.

Regards.

Hey guys,
Can you tell me what's the best way to get from Clark Airport to Angeles City (Walking Street area)?
I've read that there are buses, jeepneys, and taxis (I suppose there's also Grab).
Since I'll arrive early in the morning, I wouldn't mind taking a bus or jeepney and then walk a little. But if taking a Grab is cheap, I wouldn't rule it out.
Thanks.

I really meant two things: 1) it's about what each guy wants. What floats his boat. I don't like LBs, but if someone else does I couldn't care less and 2) We can generalize all we want, each girl is different and YMMV.

Years ago I dated a 19 yo So Cal stripper. If I had told her I didn't like something she was doing she would have tripled down on it. So maybe I'm just impressed that young Pinas aren't so awful?

Amen to 1 & 2.

There is a big difference between between being an airhead (can be tolerated) and a total bit*h (GTFOuta here).

I'd agree that 24/25 is Goldilocks just right: 18 to 23 is too stoopid; 26+ is too hardened; 24/25 is knowledgeable, playful and just right.

20 yo problems being worth it?? Like returning to a bar the next day to have a girl apologise profusely for leaving early? Going to hospital to have her stomach pumped after trying to keep up with 300 lb foreigners and seasoned girls seemed like a sufficient excuse to me. 😱 She turned out to be great fun for the next few (alcohol free) days.

Newsflash to the guys expecting to find Ms Perfect:. She doesn't exist. Expecting to find 10's across the board for looks, attitude and skills is a fallacy. There is always compromise somewhere. Personally, I'd much rather a 6 in looks and 10's in attitude and skill than vice versa. But each to their own. 😊.

Enjoy. G.

I'm not disagreeing with you. 18-20 yo's can certainly be stupid. I just had some good luck this trip and maybe I have a high tolerance for stupid? I really meant two things: 1) it's about what each guy wants. What floats his boat. I don't like LBs, but if someone else does I couldn't care less and 2) We can generalize all we want, each girl is different and YMMV. My 25 yo from Lollipop (Jane) was GREAT attitude, sex, and fun wise. She was also good looking. So go get her. But I had a great long term time with a 19 yo who wasn't very sexually adventurous (she didn't know what a vbrator was until I bought her one), but she was NOT a drama queen. If I didn't like something she was doing I told her (in a kind way) and she stopped. Years ago I dated a 19 yo So Cal stripper. If I had told her I didn't like something she was doing she would have tripled down on it. So maybe I'm just impressed that young Pinas aren't so awful?

As a generalization I can see that 22-26 yos may be a sweet spot. But some guys really want the young thing, and my point is that you can get that in AC if it's what you want. There are many places where you are limited to 25 yo plus (such as So Cal AMPS). And, personality wise, each girl will be different.

Was this intended for me? I was asking T about when/where he was permitted to photograph inside.

I haven't been taking part in the red / black bikini debate. 😜.

Cheers. G.

My mistake. I misread it and have deleted it.

Its been a while, as bars just don't do it for me anymore.

Also can't recall what bar this was. The folder this pic was in is from 2009.

Brought a tear to the eye. Ahh, the good ol days. 😊.

Enjoy. G.

Similar question: When and where were you, Transporter, able to take so many photos inside the bar, with the girls obviously happy to be included? It appears you survived to tell the tale.

Bars started the crackdown on pics about a decade ago. Atlantis was one of the first. Prior to that, it was open season. For several years of trips, I walked into almost any bar and put my tiny point / shoot camera on the table while waiting for my drink to be delivered. Didn't take long after I snapped a few before a waitress would grab it: "Sir Can I borrow it?" and walk around snapping pics of the girls. Then she'd just drop it back on my table and walk away. Not sure if Bluetooth xfer was a thing at the time. Nobody asked for any specific pictures to be sent to them, or to this or that girl. It just seemed an exercise in vanity. Can't remember who took this picture, me or a mama or GRO. Also can't recall what bar this was. The folder this pic was in is from 2009.
