Business class doesn't get better seating, just priority seating. But from what I saw heading back home, there was more people waiting in line on the business class than regular. It made no difference to me either way.

Actually, B/C has a separate car. So, you get priority seating and you're away from the unwashed masses and rowdy kidz! :)

The only way to avoid exposure is to come in a clean-room suit but that's not practical right?[/QUOTE]
Well, one could try one of those full-body condoms like the ones Leslie Nielsen and Priscilla Presley used in Naked Gun!! :)

Agreed! I used to take the train ALOT and can say that this really was the way to do it. Also included was free soda's water and snacks, newspapers and a free glass of wine.
It's nice not having annoying ass people around especially since you'll have a TON of that during the trolley trip (and in TJ itself obviously)
Also, I just want to state for those of you who use the Trolley and don't pay, I see them checking tickets about 75% of the time. I KNOW the fine is at LEAST $100 (although as MTS security was pulling some non paying riders off last week I heard them say the fine went up at the first of the year and it's now $300). Not sure if they were just trying to scare people or what though, that amouth seems a bit excessive.
Buy a $5 day pass.... It's not worth the ticket. If you can drop $100 banging putas you can drop $5 to ride the trolley

[QUOTE=Dosluna]Thanks to the contributions posted here, I decided to try the Intercalifornias bus line in Santa Ana for $28 roundtrip leaving at 9:15pm. I took a nap and soon realized how quickly we were at the border at 10: 45pm.
Adelitas chica was $50 and $12 for the room. HK chica was $60 and $11 for the room. Both sessions there was no knock on the door.

Intercalifas bus? Why didn't I see this? This bus is at the Santa Ana Bus depot or somewhere else? Or are you talking about the Tres Estrellas bus?
Do you remember the name of the girls? The ass on the AB girl looks very familiar, lol.

It is $300 bucks now. I think I read it on their website somewhere.
Didn't you find the ride long and boring either way?

Yes. The Trolley trip for ME is 2 hours each way. However. I'm not gonna go into details but, I have NO other option to get from my place in San Diego to the border. (Unless I go with a friend of course but I generally like to go solo style)

I am planning a trip very soon and I intend to spend lots of money. I want to know where would be the best place to go. I have been to nogales and rocky point but never to Tijuana. From everything I read it seems tijuana is the place to go. Seems like the prices are much better there also.
Rocky point prices. $100. $200
Nogales prices. $160 +. Seems like all the girls start at about $160
Tijuana. From reading in the forums it seems tijuana prices can start around $40
And also would it be better to change your cash to peso because of the $1 to 14peso exchange rate. Seems they don't always average the exchange rate our properly in mexico.
Open for discussion:
Which do you like more and why? . Tijuana, Nogales, Rocky point
- looking for lady lovin and the best possible place.

1. NEVER advertise on a public board that you are coming to TJ to spend "lots of money." It could end up costing you more than money. Don't do it. While we like to think we are all angels here at ISG, I am certain there are a few exceptions.
Based on #1 I would NOT make arrangements to meet anyone here except girls you intend to have sex with, and even then only after you arrive.
You sound like you have some experience, so I'll not rant.
2. The girls understand the difference in exchange but become easily confused when they try to do the math in their head. (Lucky for us eh?)
They know that $50.00us is $50.00us however, and whatever that works out to in Pesos doesn't concern them. They want $50.00 (or $60.00). The trick here is for you to only have pesos, that way they get confused and tend to go for the deal you are offering (500p) which is $32.50us (as an example).
Mongers think with their little heads, so it's not unreasonable to assume that the girls do too. As of this date, 50.00 USD=708.362 MXN.
Exchanges vary regardless of the current posted exchange rate. It varies from business to business, and NOWHERE will you get the current exchage rate. Some banks here in TJ will not do conversions except for existing customers. So you will go to a Casa de Cambio, and it's just a matter of finding one that has the best rate. They are mostly all in the same ball park, within a few pesos, so take your pick. You should do your exchange in Mexico.
Hey, i'm not saying that the girls will go for $500p., but you get my drift, right?
Have a GREAT trip.

Are the rates generally better un US side or Mexico side?

On at past trip I noticed a pool hall on 5th (I think) just off Evo but didn’t go in. I’m not great at the game but I do like to shoot a few racks every now and then. Has anyone been there or know anything about it? Is it gringo friendly?
I plan to go down on Super Bowl Sunday and will be there from afternoon till late evening. So there will be recharge time between the game and chicas. Any info will be appreciated.

Mexico side.
You can see the going U.S. rate by looking at Craiglist. It's about $150-$300 stateside for an hour of fun with a call girl. In Tj you can get a pro from $20 to $100 bucks for 30-60 minutes of lay.
You tell me which is better?
Let's not forget than in Tj you simply view a bunch of girls and pick the one you like. In USA, you call a girl and it's a hit or miss on what she will look like.
Sigh. Looks like I'm 1 man-ing Tijuana tomorrow. I hear I might get my head chopped off or something to that effect. I hope not though. Well the plans as of now. Leave Los Angeles at around 1pm. Arrive at 4ish. Go to Adelitas, do my thing. Leave by 5. Back in L. A. At 8pm.
[QUOTE=Efjayel] The Hard Rock Cafe has closed down. Don't see why anyone would want to travel to another country and eat at a US franchise restaurant anyways.[/QUOTE]
I was looking at your map (great job!) and was surprised to see where the HRC was located. Was it always there?
I stopped in there once to add to my glassware collection and seem to remember it being away from the Zona. I think there was a Sr Frogs by it too. It was 7 or 8 years ago so I might be blurry on it.
Sorry to resurect an old post but I was lurking around wistfully, remembering my visits back then. Good times. Nowadays, I sadly watch El Centro in Cd Juarez come tumbling down, one bar at a time...

I don't know where you were going to watch the Super Bowl, but there is a Caliente in the alley also. I have watched games there before, but I prefer the location on Revolution. The alley would be the best place for seeing the chicas, shooting a little pool and watching the big game.

Yes, it was always on Revolucion, near 2nd, east side.
Just a vacant building now (like lots of the places up and down the blvd.) :(
