Nuevo Laredo

[QUOTE=Chris Long; 1262612]Hey Roscoedog.

You have more balls than me, I've been in Texas for nearly four years now and it's only a 5 hours drive to NL for me but I still have not mustered up the courage to take the trip. I've done the Tijuana and SJ thing a couple of times and felt relatively safe in both areas provided you take common since precautions. If you want a wing man to explore NL with let me know I've been itching to go down and try it out but can't find anyone else to go with. Send me a PM if you are interested.

Chris.[/QUOTE]Did you read my reply to his last post? I live here, have for almost 4 years, and know gringos here with a lot more years than that. I am about as gringo as gringo can get. I do speak passable Spanish, I do go out almost every night. My situation now dictates that I remain here, at least for the time being.

Balls to come to NL? Come on. I will meet with anyone, but will hang with very few. I'll show anyone the ropes here, then you're pretty much on your own. Being an experienced Mexico monger, you should do just fine here.

Chris.[/QUOTE]I wouldn't worry chris, go down, you don't like it leave. This is a hobby for me. I have been to Thailand twice and the Philippians once. As I wrote before I use to go to Tijuana one weekend every month for a long time now and have irregular relationships with a few different women there. I am looking for something similar down on the Texas border. I get one week off every month with the schedule I am working. It may take a few trips to find exactly what I am looking for, but I am down with trying them all to find the ones I like. Thanks Bbond for the offer to show the ropes, I hope to see you. In a previous post you described yourself, I will surely keep an eye out or hit you up before I leave. I will be at the Fiesta hopefully around six or seven with everything working out with the drive. Anyone else who might be down there, I am 39, white boy, buzz cut and I wear prescription black Oakleys and I speak horrible 8th grade spanglish. But I love this hobby! It's better than drinking, drugging, fighting and marriage.

I just spent the last several hours drinking and playing pool with some locals. I took 200 pesos to the bar, came home totally drunk with 100 pesos in my pocket, and I bought cigarettes. I await a 20 year old girl, one hot chica, one that is soaking an Americano for all she can get (the fool bought her a car..lol..), but she fucks me regularly. I usually give her 400 pesos, last time here she was offended that I offered money, go figure, (girl likes to fuck and I don't mean maybe). This girl is at least a 9, some friends rate her a 10. Two kids, but tight, tight, body. If she don't show, and that's always a possibility, I'll text my 100 peso blow job (BBBJCIM) to show up in the morning. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain, he's just a stupid old gringo.

[QUOTE=Bbond;1262477]No cop shakedowns, no cops. The military may or may not ask to see you bags when you enter, they usually don't mess with Americans.[/QUOTE]Do you have federales in Nuevo Laredo? We have problems in Juarez with not only the municipal cops robbing gringos in Juarez, but also the federales robbing gringos in Juarez.

I haven't yet seen any reports of gringos being robbed by the Mexican military, in the Juarez forum, but I have seen numerous reports from Juarez citizens complaining that the Mexican military have robbed them, when the do the house searches in Juarez. Below is a report from a Juarez monger, who was robbed by the federales in Juarez.

[QUOTE=Bachelor Warrior;1243004](Posted on 1/3/12) New experience for me. I was hassled by the federales and not the local cops. Swell. About 3 of them. Maybe 4. At least one was carrying an automatic M-16. Body armor. Fairly routine. They did look pretty tough up close I'll say. Broad daylight. About 4:30 in the afternoon. They were real interested in whether I spoke espanol or not. They asked 3 or 4 times if I spoke or knew spanish. I said yeah, a little. And, oh yeah, they wanted to know if I had any drugs on me. They asked me why I was in Juarez. I said just a tourist going to have a few cervezas at some of the local bars like Kentucky Club.

Anyway, pretty thorough search. I was more than a few dollars lighter afterwards. But it's been quite a while since I've been searched and robbed like that, so I figure it's like a travel expense. So long as they don't haul me off to jail or take my IDs. They could save themselves and me a lot of time and effort if they would just say, look buddy we need a contribution for the Juarez Policemen's Ball. Ha, ha. I wouldn't like it, but it would be easier.

The guy with the big gun finally said I could go. I thanked them for their service and said I felt a lot better. As a tourist you know. Having them on duty.

[QUOTE=Xfactors;1263129]Do you have federales in Nuevo Laredo?[/QUOTE]Yes we do. They patrol in convoys of 4 to 5 trucks, I have not heard of any robberies by them. I was stopped one night driving home from the Montera, just asked if I was ok and sent me on my way. Pretty obvious I had been drinking, but seemed once they saw I was American they just said be careful.

The state police patrol along with the military, usually in convoys of 2 white state trucks and 2 green military trucks. I have not heard anything bad about them either.

Link to google map, it is fairly accurate. [url]http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid=212785849983556891288.0004527b9c8f918140b9b&ll=27.49502,-99.50635&spn=0.00394,0.008256&z=18[/url]

Bond,

I am trying to plan a much needed return to NL after a much too long Hiatus (economy got me). Anyway, please clear up a couple of questions for me.

Are the cabs no running until midnight out of BT, or do they stop an nine like the were a while back? Also, if I hit BT and leave about 11 or 12, how late ar the DT bars open these days? I just wonder if, after leaving BT about midnight, will there still be time downtown to find someone to bang until the sun comes up.

By the way, I haven't been down there since April 2010, and I am literally getting giddy with the thought of making an appearance again. None of my friends here in Houston understand our lifestyle, and therefore I find myself hunting alone for the most part. I can't wait for the chance again to be able to have some beers, and trade stories with someone that understands me.

By the way, iPads suck for typing anything more than a sentence or two.

Downtown bars are open, except on Sunday, until 2:00am, Sunday they close at midnight. Lately the selection of chicas downtown has been quite amazing.

Hola Bbond & Baby Huey. Bbond, do you think one of the taxi company's might possibly respond to a phone call late night after midnight from management from either Danash or Safari and send a taxi to NLBT late night to transport a Gringo back to Hotel Fiesta? I would also like / need to make a trip to Nuevo Laredo. I haven't been to Nuevo Laredo / NLBT since October 31, 2009. I would like to make a run to NLBT for old times sake to check out my old stomping grounds.

Bbond, do you know if Chris (Martin) , the pesky tour guide, is still hanging out at NLBT? And what about that old man who wore the captain's hat? I liked the captain, Chris I wasn't too crazy about. Both would know what is going on out at NLBT, if they are still there.

I'm tempted to almost make a trip down there, to see what the hell is going on down there. I miss those NLBT door girls. To me, they are a hell of a lot more fun, then this boring massage parlor scene here in Juarez.

I just had hernia surgery, so I can't go anywhere right now. I get a month off work, so that ain't too bad. Xfactors, bored in El Paso. :(

For $10 you may be able to get a waiter from Safari or Danash to run you back to town.

At 10:30am this morning I took Roscoedog out for a quick tour, place was just dead, we saw 1 door girl working, figured it would be dead that early, most door girls were up late last night so they don't start work until 11 or noon. The whole zona looks run down, streets are not maintained, pot holes and mud holes every where, I have never seen it look so run down and disgusting.

Everything WAS NOT QUIET tonight. Shooting right outside the Montera, reportedly 2 guys killed by the military. I don't know, they would not let anyone leave the Montera. First time I have actually heard gunfire here. When things were cleared they closed the Montera, about 10:30pm, I exited there to a military show of force, they wanted to see who was leaving and had fingers on the triggers, vehicles blocking all streets close to the bar. Walked over to Hotel Fiesta to inform roscoedog what he had missed. (He had left, after fooking of course, because of some stomach distress.) We walked back to the OXXO to get him some smokes and passed 2 convoys of policia / military, they were out in force. Nothing else was closed, just the Montera.

More as I learn about it.

Yesterday afternoon, roscoedog ask me to run him by NLBT one more time. We went about 3:00pm, still very dead, saw maybe 7-8 door girls. Maria from the green building was sitting outside so I stopped and talked with her. She has 3 girls working out of the green building, and one of those just started that day. One girl came outside to throw some tortillas to the birds, she was not too bad, roscoedog hit on her. Maria says it has been really bad for quite a while, but is a little better in the evening.

Occupants of the truck opened fire on the soldiers who promptly returned fire. Eyewitness says several bodies in the street, I haven't been able to get a exact number but last word says at least 3. Saturday night is not a good night for them to do this kind of operation, as downtown is usually full of people, it's a wonder bystanders were not killed or injured, maybe there were some, but I have not heard of any.
