Cartagena Reports

[QUOTE=BlackPage;2388646]Now I understand why you keep the mystery about why you have to fly to MIA. I think it's EXTREMELY unlikely you will meet any work colleague there.[/QUOTE]Sometimes my humour is not evident to everyone.

Once on site, you will see so many girls around you, way more your dick can handle (and I am not minimizing your power), that frankly FB and online dating will be not an interesting option for you. You don't call Domino's to deliver you a pizza, when you are sitting in a all-you-can-eat buffet restaurant.[/QUOTE]Don't worry about the mystery, I can see its making you ill with worry.

Excellent news about chica numbers and availability. I have fond mamories of the beach on my last visit, chillin, chatting to chicas, getting rid of Tony the tout and then visiting my shag pad with the girls to "watch TV" or whatever. Hope to repeat that experience some 14 years after the original cum-stained adventure.

I have watched the Gemini Man movie the other day. I was so surprised (call me ignorant) to discover that half an hour or so is set in Cartagena! The beauty of its colored walls is breathtaking.

There is a long dynamic chase sequence, with Will Smith and his antagonist running on motorbikes around the narrow alleys of Getsemani and even on the Walls. I think I was the only one in the cinema room knowing how those places look for real. It was really an experience seeing those alleys, which I have seen in reality, starred in an action movie. I try to imagine how they could close half Getsemani to the public (how long? 1 full day? more than that?) to shoot the movie.

[QUOTE=MojoBandit;2389264][URL]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t0YXuRTaiCo[/URL][/QUOTE]On site for 6 weeks, but did not keep Getsemani closed to the public for 6 weeks. I wonder how long did they have to close the location to shoot the action scenes.

I don't know that this article covers the whole time they were there

This might get buried in this thread in the coming weeks but it will probably still be relevant in that thread, If you have not seen that thread just back out to "Colombia" and scroll down.

However, when I first saw the trailer, my first reaction was. Yeah, that background looked so familiar, and lo and behold, it was the walled city alright. I believe they even have shots of the clock tower.

Hi all,

Would anyone have recommendation as to where I should stay when in Cartegena that is guest friendly and somewhere close to the Clock Tower, hotel or Airbnb? I will travel there during the middle of the week, how does it compare to the weekend? Is Electra or LDV any good during the weekday? What about Clock Tower scenes? Any info would greatly appreciated.

[QUOTE=Johnson1;2353073]Clock tower was SUPER dead when I was in town 2 weeks ago. And I mean that in a good way. There aren't much guys in town and you could pick choose and refuse. Average price was down to 50 dollars, and yes, you could negotiate that down because work was so slow. I also found an apartment, with no front desk after 7, so all you can eat buffet from 7 pm onwards. I took 2 friends down with me and after showing them the ropes, they were able to fend for themselves, including 2 3 some at 80 in total. I encourage anyone going down now to be careful though. The Venezuelans have really took over the place and the men and street kids are very aggressive in begging and touching you as they beg. So watch your wallets. I also encourage you, since it is slow, to not be too hard on the negotiations. The girls do this for work and need to eat!

I am working on a membership, and senior members, I will share the apartment info. It is literally by the Clocktower!

I also have numbers to share if you want to hit the ground running hard.[/QUOTE]What is the name of this apartment near the Clock Tower? Is it also chica-friendly during the day when the front desk staff is there, or only after they leave at 7 pm!
