Nuevo Laredo

[QUOTE=MarketPlace;1801941]What is required to cross the border into Mexico? Do the Mexican police check people as they cross the bridge? I noticed the metal canopies on Bridge One and thought that big lines of people would be waiting in line. I used to drive into Mexico years ago but I wouldn't do that today. Is there parking near the US side of the border or a parking garage?
Thanks[/QUOTE]Nothing required to enter Mexico, they don't mess with you at all, once in a great while they may look at what you are bringing in, but not usually. Going back to USA is a different story tho. The usual immigration and customs BS applies there. Yes, parking close to bridge 1.

I am trying to decide between heading to Juarez or Laredo. I have been to the MP in Juarez looking for something different. How does Laredo work? Do they have health cards like Tijuana? Will they go back to a hotel with you? Some info for a newbie to the area would be great.

You will find street walkers and pick up bars downtown. There are also outcall "massage services" I can recommend a couple reputable ones. Girls working bars and boystown are supposed to have health cards, some do some don't. I would recommend meeting up with someone familiar with NL, you will get the hang of it rather quickly. I am generally available to help, I actually live in NL, and am well known downtown, and somewhat in boystown.

Hi Mr Bond,

What is your experience with easter weekend at the downtown spots? Will they close early Saturday like they do on New years eve or have regular hours. I am sure selection will be less then usual because Easter is a big catholic holiday. What has been your experience in the past? I will look for you this weekend if places are open.

Seems some closed early Saturday then open a little late Sunday, but not real sure, I'll find out.

There will still be plenty of girls available, but less that usual.

Just curious, where do the girls hang out when Montera is closed? Intimo? But that place is too small and not enough seats.

Funman13.[/QUOTE]Intimo also closes at 2 am, some go to boys town and some go to the Arizona, Arizona closes at 5 or 6 am. Arizona is on Calle Victoria, 2 blocks north and 2 blocks west of the Montera. I has a greater capacity than the Montera and will fill up on Friday and Saturday nights.

I am going to cross the border and go to Nuevo Laredo for the first time this weekend.

Just wanted to get some info from previous visitors if there's any daytime action available or all action starts at night?

I plan to leave my car at the border and cross by foot and then use taxis.

If staying the night, where do you guys usually stay in Nuevo Laredo? Safe to walk from hotels to Boystown or taxis safe?

I would be interested in Bbond's or other resident monger's opinion about daytime opportunity vs safety now. It's been 10+ yrs since my last visit to NL; every visit back then was after dark. I don't want to be in town after dark these days; even being in NL while the sun is still up gives me pause. I unfortunately look like a likely target even when I consciously dress down.

Some street touts may try to latch on to you, just send them away. Those guys do perform a service to novices that come down without a clue. I assure you they are not needed. Downtown action is limited to a small area, all appreciate your business. let me know when you are coming, and I will walk you through the area takes a few minutes and you will feel comfortable anywhere.

If you, as a non regular visitor, decide to visit Nuevo Laredo I suggest you come on a Wednesday or Thursday, in order to get a feel of the places before the craziness that happens on Friday and Saturday nights. If that doesn't work, come earlier in the day, on a weekend, as bars get quite full later. I am usually available to help you get familiar with the area.
