My schedule. Critique and suggestion please
OK, the fruits of RTFF is here. I'll be in DR, for the first time, from March 3rd Thurs 2pm to March 7th Mon 1pm for business / pleasure. I'll be staying at the Hotel Barcelo Capella, but will monger in Juan Dolio, Boca Chica, and Santo Domingo as schedule permits.
Transportation to and from the airport is paid for, and I don't want to deal with the hassles of renting a car, so I won't be.
To maximize mongering pleasure and to minimize chances of getting ripped off / putting myself in unfamiliar situation and danger, I've put together a tentative schedule. This is based on useful intel shared by all you DR vets (thanks!). Please give feedback / critique / advice!
March 3rd Thurs- early afternoon arrival. First order of business: buy a SIM card for my unlocked Blackberry. Can anyone tell me where? At the airport?
Transportation is already arranged for, will check in hotel and settle down first in Juan Dolio. Plan to chill out at the resort until late afternoon / early evening, but will be on the look-out for pros / semi-pros who are trying to make a few bucks while staying at the hotel for fun.
Evening: being Thursday, a week day, not expecting Boca Chica's street scene to be alive and will stick to the casas in Juan Dolio: Caprichios, Showgirls, and will probably end the night at the strip club across from Popeye's Bar and Restuarant. Can't stay up too late because of work early Friday.
March 4th Fri. Business / work starts early and will last until late afternoon / evening.
Evening: Friday night, expecting Boca Chica's famous Calle Duarte to be lively. Will head to Boca Chica, but will visit La Casona de Piedra before they close. Also will visit Casa Iraisa (Yellow House). Will end the night on Calle Duarte, people watching more than anything probably- can't take the SWs back to my hotel (too far). Any suggestion on taking a SW somewhere if I happened to find one I just can't say no to?
March 5th Sat. No work today. Will chill out the at resort in the morning. Again, will be on the lookout for chicas who want to make money to pay for their rooms.
Afternoon. Will head over to Santo Domingo. Will take guagua from Boca Chica to SD. Once there, will visit GBP and perhaps Pink Pony, main attraction for these two places being 1000-peso chicas.
Evening. Will visit 305 (the hottest chicks are there?). Will check out the nightlife at Zona Colonial. If not much is happening, will take guagua back to BC before it gets too late. If luck permits and ran into a SW, where are the cabanas I can take them and possibly stay overnight?
March 6th Sun- business / work in the morning.
Afternoon. Not expecting much to happen on Sunday, will go into SD for sight-seeing. Will take loads of photos of tourist attractions so I can have "homework to turn in" once get home to the wife.
Evening. After getting back from SD to Juan Dolio, after dinner, will visit Klimaxxx in La Romana (they should be open on Sunday night, right?) then call it a night.
March 7th Mon- final day in DR. Will chill out at the resort in the morning, hopefully will get some hotel maid action (inspired by, and LMAO at the "$50 on the dresser and not one word exchanged" report!)
Flying out early afternoon, back home to the USA.
What am I missing? Should I fit in La Coppa or Pacos somewhere?
I know about transportation between BC and SD, but what about between Juan Dolio and BC? And La Romana? Is taxi the only option?
I will carry a pocket camera / camcorder (Kodak zi8) with me during mongering activities. Only at the resort and during time set aside strictly for sight-seeing will I take out my expensive DSLR.
I'm trying to avoid folks who claim they can "hook me up" and want to take me somewhere for nice chicas. I will, however, solicit the help of motoconcho drivers at BC.
Thanks in advance for your feedback!
Report: Feb 18, 2010 to Feb 22, 2010
Arrived in DR and decided to try things out again.
Hotels.
1. Jaguar Apart Hotels on Hermanos Deligne behind Jaragua Hotel in Ave Independencia.
Cost: 55 USD per night.
I stayed at Jaguar Apart Hotels. I have stayed there twice before, but this time I was disappointed in Rafael. I had emailed a week prior requesting a King size bed, and he said no problem. I arrived and they put me in Room 102. A very tiny room with a queen size bed.
2. Hotel Rafael why <forgot rest of name on Ave Independencia.
Cost: 250 Road (10 USD) for 1 hour.
This is not a place you sleep. This is where you bring a street girl who doesn't have a cedula. BoricuaOnline if you could update your map, that would be nice. Its definitely on the grimier side of things, but I felt safe.
Girls.
1. Club 305 on Independencia Ave and Pasteur Ave.
I took a girl from here, who was a 10 on the hotness scale. She was 3500 Road (100 USD ). She wouldn't negotiate lower. I still liked her so I took her to my hotel. She walks in and starts washing her face. Girls look terrible without makeup and her washing her face ruined the fun for me. I fucked her for 15 mins and she left.
2. Sky High on Pasteur Ave.
I decided to fuck a girl on the premise. I went in, and asked 3 girls how much they cost. They all said 3500 Road (100 US) and none of them would go lower. One even walked away bitching. They were all 10's in hotness. I walked to another girl who was a tall blond, but was a 7 in hotness. I negotiated her down to 2500 Road (75 USD ). Her attitude was much better, but I still fucked her for 15 mins and then left. I can keep her for an hour, but what's the point? They only let you splooge once and that's it.
3. Lapsus.on Pasteur Ave.
Talked to a girl, a 7 in hotness. She quoted 3500 Road (100 USD ). My broken spanish THINKS she went down to 2500 Road (80 USD) , but I couldn't tell. Either way, I was sick of negotiating and wanted to leave. As I was leaving she stopped me and tried to ask me for a propina. Yeah, right.
4. Playboy Palacio on Calle Mercedes in Zona Colonial.
The women are all 4, 5's, and 6's. Furthermore, they have now jacked their prices up to 1500 Road (50 USD ). I sampled three of them, their attitudes are borderline decent, Nothing to rave about.
5. Bar 360 on Calle Mercedes in Zona Colonial.
I couldn't find it, so I left.
6. Street girls on Ave Independencia.
Independencia is comprised of a lot of ugly girls now. In my 4 nights in the DR, I fucked just about every decent looking SW. They all were 1000 Road (35 USD ). I found a couple good looking ones. Because of how scarce the good looking ones were, I started fucking the same 3 SW's over and over again through various nights. I didn't get much variety. I had one SW twice in one night because I couldn't find anything else.
Food.
1. Adrian Tropical on Ave George Washington past La Parada Casa and Jaragua Casino.
I highly recommend walking over to Adrian Tropical. You can sit over looking the Ocean, it looks fantastic. It has an english menu too (the other restaurants on independencia don't have those). Prices are reasonable. Nothing to rave home about.
2. Manolos behind Jaragua Casino on Ave Independencia.
I was in the mood for breakfast and they serve breakfast 24/7 as well. I loved that. They have some great mangu gratinado. I can never wake up early enough to eat real breakfast and I always wanted to try Dominican breakfast.
3. Villar Hermanos.
Went inside the indoor cafeteria. Hard to pick and choose what you want if you can't speak spanish. I couldn't figure out what the meats were.
