Cool and Rainy in December. How about January and February?
Just got back and it was cool and rainy. Didn't pack enough long jeans.
Going back late next month into February. Is it typically in the upper 60's and rainy in mid-winter during the nights?
Camaro in Sosua December 2014
Camaro's Sosua Synopsis December 2014.
I have just completed the Sosua portion of my most recent excursion into the Dominican Republic. This synopsis will be a companion to my Puerto Plata and Santiago reports. This trip included 9 days in Sosua 2 days in Puerto Plata and 3 days in Santiago. I will do a report detailing my experiences in the other 2 destinations. Below I have listed my observations of Sosua for your review.
Vacation monger vs. Ex Pat monger.
My focus is changing because I am still making the transition between vacation monger and ex-pat monger. It is a difficult process because when dealing with women civilian or pro I have a tendency to fall back on what I am accustomed to. I suspect I will have to be on the ground for some time before the transition will be made complete. It is difficult to think like someone you have never been before but I intend to enjoy the transition.
Weather.
December in the Dominican Republic is winter rainy season. This winter is unusually cool even for the Dominican Republic. Temperatures dipped into the 60's; off course that in nothing in comparison to winters in the north however this winter has been unseasonably cool with plenty of rain.
Victorian House.
I have lost count how many times I have stayed at the Victorian House. This time my motivation was their $50.00 per night special, rooms are normally $65.00 per night. The hotel's selling point of course is its vista view of Sosua Bay. On one night after one of my sessions my chica jumped up out of bed and went out on the balcony by herself just to look at the lights bouncing off the water and listening to the waves crashing on the beach.
The restaurant although expensive has a decent menu with a Cajun New Orleans theme. Dinning on the bay with a chica definitely has a romantic feel and the staff has always been on point with me. There is also a Sports Bar beneath the restaurant that has a light menu.
In my experience the rooms are always clean and the staff provides plenty of towels. I recently was at a Puerto Plata hotel that only provided 2 towels a day. This presents a problem for the monger who desires multiple sessions with multiple chicas. Victorian House provides face, hand and body towels for 2 people daily and the staff will give more if you ask.
My biggest complaint the trip was the WIFI. There was a brief power outage after which the power was restored but the WIFI went out. I went to the front desk to describe the situation and since it was after hours the receptionist said she did not have access to the office that has the WIFI router so she could reset it. This absolutely makes no sense to me, it seems like the WIFI router should be in a place where the staff always has easy access especially in an event such as this. For me if I have a choice between television and internet access there is no choice to be made.
Centro Medico Cabarette.
I had my first encounter with Dominican medicine in 7 years of traveling here. I got something in my eye that caused an infection with redness swelling and pain. After 2 days I decided to go to the clinic.
Centro Medico Cabarette is on Highway 5 in between Sosua and Cabarette just east of the new Super Pola. They washed my eye gave me a shot and a prescription for some type of eye medication. I was there for about 2 hours. My insurance would not pay so I got hit for 3600 pesos. I will definitely get some Dominican health insurance when I hit the ground next month.
Ms. La Romana (The wife up option).
I generally do not do wife up situations especially in Sosua because of the talent pool however because I am in transition I decided to do something different. I am losing interest in random mongering as it presents about a 50/50 risk for me.
Ms La Romana was laid back all we did was eat have sex watch television and play on our phones. She was about as easy and laid back as they come. She is studying nursing so she encouraged me to seek medical attention for my eye and assisted me with maintenance. When I wanted to rub it with my fingers, of course she chewed me out telling me to use bottled water and a clean towel so it doesn't get re-infected.
I enjoyed her company but 2 days was enough however I will revisit the wife up option in the future.
Creeping while wifed up.
On a couple of occasions while Ms. La Romana was sleeping I went to the strip to hunt. On one occasion I went to Dulce Secreto and on the other I went to Bar Central Hotel to do the deed.
Each time I returned to my room with a sandwich from the food truck that is parked in front of After One, not only because I was hungry but the sandwhich would be my cover story in the event she asked. I must admit living on the edge can be quite exhilarating. The irony was that the sex with one of the jump offs was better than sex with La Romana. I guess I could have a worse problem on my trip.
Dulce Secreto vs. Bar Central Hotel.
If you are on the Pedro Clisante strip obviously Bar Central is closer for a quickie but this trip I was in room 22 which had no television and the bed and mattress were absolutely horrible.
Bar Central is 400 pesos but although Dulce Secreto is a little further and will require transportation paying 600 pesos for a more comfortable room with air-conditioning and cable is worth it IMHO.
Tenga quidado cerca After One.
My cover for my creeping was the food truck in front of After One. One night about 4 am after getting my sandwich I am was walking back to the Victorian House and one of the street rats bum rushed me from behind grabbing my junk I suddenly felt her hands around my pockets and pushed her off she threw up her hands and ran into the crowd. Can you say CONYO! I checked she didn't get anything.
Pedro Clisante West.
Nothing has changed between Classicos, Merengue, Bar Central and Rumbas. The street is lively with the street kids running around play fighting men talking and chilling and the chicas posting up trying to be seen.
*My favorite spot on Pedro Clisante West continues to be Rumbas Restaurant where I can eat ribs or quarter dark chicken sip Fanta Orange and watch the chica parade go back and forth between Clasicos / Merengue and Rumbas.
Pedro Clisante East.
In addition Rumbas Restaurant sometimes has desserts. I tried a double chocolate cake that was absolutely delicious. City Nights remains a great spot that does not get the attention or traffic that it deserves. The New York Bar has a few Hatianas for those who have crossed over to the dark side and of course Rancho Tipico is on point with its different meal specials throughout the week.
*My target going forward will be the barmaids at Samba Brazil. There are generally 4 or 5 bar maids and 3 or 4 of them are high 7's and 8's, I do not know what the status is but on my next trip I plan on chatting 1 or 2 up to see what the deal is.
Closing thoughts.
I found something very strange on my last 2 trips, some girls are afraid of the Politur as the walk up and down Pedro Clisante and flee when they see them coming. Other girls just watch them as they walk by. Although prostitution is legal the Politur arbitrarily detain some girls overnight and release them in the morning. I cannot figure the rational as it seems as if the enforcement is arbitrary and fits no rhyme or reason.
Recently I have been plagued with catching my civilian chicas while they were menstruating which has put a damper on my action with them however you do not expect the same with straight PFP chicas. Unfortunately some PFP chicas have no scruples and their primary concern in money and not the pleasure of their client therefore they will work during their menstruation. I guess part of the interview process going forward will be asking "estas en tu menstruacion?
Chica prices remains all over the board, it is reported that some weekend warriors are paying $150.00-$200.00 for some chicas. I stayed within the 1500-2000 pesos range.
Conclusion.
Sosua continues to be alive and well although many of the chicas can be quite business like it takes some effort to break the barrier of puta client relationship. I found some quite enjoyable to talk to. Going forward I can see spending less time on Pedro Clisante but for now it still holds some fascination for me.
I have found an apartment but it needs a little work before I move in so I will return in January rent a hotel room for a few days while I get everything together in my new place.
