General Reports

[QUOTE=Phordphan;1476451]Whoever said that is full of sh*t. You can walk from the border to the zona during all daylight hours. It's actually safer than people think at night, but it can be a bit creepy. Walking to Viva Mex at 10pm is fine. Just don't be drunk and keep your wits about you.[/QUOTE]Good to know Phordphan.

I don't smoke / drink / drugs. Even then, what should I do, if the cops for whatever reason detain. I have read about the posts that says do not offer any bribe or give them bribe if they ask, too.

If I refuse to pay what happens next.

How does the process work, just to be aware of.

Guys do you have any info about the Grand Hotel in the Business district? Is there anything interesting there? A couple of people have mentioned that there are pretty hot chicks roaming the bar there.

Kinda far from zone but if you want to see what Tijuana has to offer.

[QUOTE=SBeach25;1477246]Hey GF, not sure if you've tried this but go to google maps and find you location and get the GPS coordination and post it here and your FB. So any mongers interested (me as well) can just plug it into our phones and just go there. If we take a taxi, we can always show the drivers where it is on our phones. Good example is my GPS coordination I used for Otay Mesa border crossing I posted.[/QUOTE]What would I do without you buddy?

I will be going down later tomorrow if anyone cares to join

Just a night club. Also, across the hotel entrance is a good Argentinian restaurant called Fonda Argentina. Sorry if this doesn't help you with what you are after but it should keep your other head busy for a little bit. LOL.

Enjoy your stay!

[QUOTE=Marrent;1477384]Guys do you have any info about the Grand Hotel in the Business district? Is there anything interesting there? A couple of people have mentioned that there are pretty hot chicks roaming the bar there.[/QUOTE]The Gran Hotel is on Aguas Caliente Blvd. A main avenue with several decent restaurants within walking distance. I'd also like to add " La Lena" (grill meat / parilla) to the list. It is located just a few blocks up next to the country club / golf course. The hotel has a rooftop pool. Please report on it if you use it.

I've been in the hotel a few times for various reasons but never stayed there.

A cab to the zona should cost you anywhere between 50-70 ($6/7) pesos depending how the negotiations go. You may not want to stand right in front of the hotel when you catch the cab. They will definitely charge you more if they see you coming out of that hotel.

[QUOTE=Tony Giavanni; 1477262]Often times, the google map does not give the correct location in Tijuana. Last time I got lost trying to find Guitarrfreak's shop holding a google map print out based on the address posted on.

I think this is also because Tijuana does not really have any addresses. Each street has a couple of different names such as Articulo 123 also known as Primera, something like that, extremely confusing. In fact I tried 3 times to find Plaza Del Sol and got it the 3rd time only after I asked a someone for direction. If you try to find Plaza Del Sol in Tijuana on google map, it will give you a totally different location. I would suggest that Guitarrefreak draw a map with his great engineering skills and posted here. The shop is not far from the Zona, at all. I can find it easily now, but if you want me to tell you the direction, I still can't.

Ciao![/QUOTE]Google give you exact triangulation. I know your talking about getting address but this is the Longitude and Latitude coordinates. Plus, you can download google maps offline and it will give you the streets on your phone with no need for wifi or connection to move about.

Maybe I am too old for this stuff. But how do you find the longitude and latitude of an address and then plug it into google map and know exactly where it is located?

is the fb page in spanish only? that's not a problem for me but might be for spanish challenged mongers. so the cost of the massage is based on the skill level of the massage therapist? btw i don't mean to offend anyone but i think this place is easy to find. plaza del sol is clearly marked and is on the left hand if you're walking west on 3rd street also known as carrillo puerto.

[quote=guitarrefreak; 1477114]thanks fj. i welcome any forums to please go and give me your honest opinion!

the place is in a building called "plaza del sol" (most taxi's know, but in case they don't, it is on calle 3ra, in between ninos heroes and constitucion) , the 3rd floor is a gym, my store is on the 2nd floor.

[QUOTE=Reinaldo;1477689].if you're walking west on 3rd street also known as Carrillo Puerto.[/QUOTE]This is exactly what confuses people "as known as.". Generally speaking we do not have multiple names for one street. Washington Street is Washington Street. It is not also as known as "The First President Street". As far as I have noticed, Tijuana's streets have at least 2 names for each one if not 3 or more. But google map only gives you one name. The rest, you got to figure it out yourself.

It's certainly confusing to have multiple names for Tijuana streets. One way to keep track of the streets that cross Revolucion is that, beginning with First Street, the "alternate name" for the street begins with the corresponding letter of the alphabet. So, for example, First Street's alternate name-Articulo 123-begins with an "A", Second Street's alternate name begins with a "B", etc.

Hi all you dirty ass mongers. I haven't written any posts for a while, and decided I'd visit to say hello, and give my greetings to all my buddies, old and new.

Actually, the real reason I signed in was because I ran into a very sweet lady last night in Adelitas that I have had relations with in the past, but have not seen in a while.

The first words out of her mouth were,"why did you write about me"? I had forgotten that I had posted about her, and honestly replied I wasn't sure what she was talking about.

But then she persisted, and said she knew it was me because some of the details that I had written in my post. Vague memories of the post came back, but I still didn't want to admit to her, so I asked her if it was a good post or bad post. When she agreed that it was a good post, then I jokingly took credit for it. She didn't seem very upset, and luckily it was a fovorable post about her generous services.

Thought it wud be a funny story to share with you guys that I unintentionally outed myself. Guess I have no one to blame but myself. Woops!

Stay safe, abuse that Tijuana pussy, and watch the details you guys write in your posts, otherwise you cud end up outing urself like this dirty ass monger.

Click whats here and you will see the coordinates in the search field. This should help. For example here is Adilita's: 32. 537904-117. 039222. Haha. In case any new mongers need exact location.

I will be back in Tijuana for a few weeks starting Tuesday. Lets hope the Govt shut down doesn't interfere with me getting there.

If anyone is around let me know.
