This trip report is a bit late due to the holidays, and so my memory may be a bit off (I usually like to write it up immediately so I don't forget things). I'm terrible with names, so don't expect me to be able to recall those at all, sorry. My next trip I'll definitely consider a running live report, assuming my phone battery holds out. Being on a roaming network just destroys my battery life. I have to keep airplane mode on when I'm in Mexico or else the battery dies in a couple of hours. ugh. Anyway, here's my report. Some of it is in pesos and some in dollars. I'll try to note which in case of confusion, but in most cases it should be obvious that I didn't pay US$200 for lunch.

My flight left Kansas City at 6:00am, meaning I was pretty much up all night before getting ready. One change of planes in Phoenix and I was in San Diego before 9am. Grabbed some breakfast and hit up a CVS for supplies and jumped on the trolley. I headed straight for the hotel Villa de Zaragoza and arrived around 11:00am. The clerk let me check in right away, but the $900 room I reserved was small and dirty and I opted to upgrade to the $1350 King room. It was OK, but in the future I'd rather pay an extra $200-300 for a nice room at the Ticuan. I'm usually only staying in a nice hotel the first night -- after little sleep and early travel, I like to have a quiet place to nap and gather my bearings before starting my week.
I almost always call in an escort for my first encounter, and this time was no different. I picked a five girls out of Mileroticos and messaged them on Whatsapp. Only one responded within 30 minutes, and so she got an invitation (another responded two hours later, another the next day, and two never responded). Unfortunately I'm at work and can't look up the ad, but will try to find and edit it in later. She kept me up to date on her progress and when she arrived was even better looking than in the ad. It was a good, if standard hour for US$80 including the Uber. We took a shower together and she left. Nothing special, but well worth the fee.
After getting cleaned up I headed out to the zona. Grabbed some food at a taco truck and scoped out the various clubs. I didn't take anyone arriba that night, but got a few dances and left fairly early to get some sleep. I had three more days to get through and was very tired.

I checked out of Zaragoza a little after 11 and walked to a restaurant recommended here. Cevicheria la Mas Nais is just down the street from Zaragoza and was delicious. It was cheap by US standards, but compared to other places I've been to in TJ it was a bit pricy. But the ambiance was nice and the staff were fantastic. I had a Red Snapper ceviche tostada ($70) and a shrimp, fish, and octopus cocktail ($140). I couldn't finish them both. Well worth it and highly recommended.
I got to Cascadas around 12:30 and was allowed to check in right away, which amazed me. Got a Master Suite on the 5th floor, US$22 per night with VIP (which was still active from my April trip). There is construction going on in that part of the building, which was a bit of a hassle, but I was far enough down the hall that there wasn't much noise. Room was large, but none of the amenities that they show on the web site other than the Jacuzzi. Oh well, it's worth the extra $11 just for the added space.
Went down to Hong Kong around 1:30. It was slow even for a Monday afternoon. I sat down and scoped out the place. I caught the eye of a hottie who looked at me and made the drink motion with her hands. I motioned for her to sit. She introduced herself as Lucy and immediately asked if I wanted to go to the room to fuck (straight out like that, "para cojer"). I said it was too early to fuck but maybe later and did she want a ficha? Instead she got up and left.
Around 3:00, Chanel sat down and started rubbing my dick. Bought her a drink and we rubbed each other for a bit. She has long black hair and nice sized fake tits, soft. Lots of tattoos, which didn't bother me. She asked for $80 for the room, or 1600 pesos. I countered with 1200 and we settled on 1400 with oral sin condom (I always negotiate for BBBJ, and it's a deal breaker). The session was good and we both left happy.
I spent some time at CC sitting with a cute gordita. I don't recall her puta name but her real name is Davora. We talked a lot and seemed to really click. It would have taken her up but I had that session earlier and I was meeting a buddy so told her I'd catch up with her later. She was leaving at 8:00 so she gave me her Whatsapp and asked me to call her. She was off Tuesday and Wednesday but would be back in CC on Thursday.
Met up with my buddy from another board for a few drinks at TB, AB, and CC before heading back to HK. Nothing was happening anywhere except at Hong Kong. It's my favorite time to be there -- not a lot of guys, but enough chicks to make it interesting. Spent a lot of time scoping it out and just generally chatting with my wingman. We both noticed the Asian guys on the balcony with the posse of 8 putas and buckets of drinks all over (referenced in this post). It seemed crazy that they would spend so much money and not even pay attention to the girls. They seemed to want attention more than pussy. Although why do it on a Monday night when the place is pretty quiet? I guess that's when they can get the focus, since other than them the club was rather tame. Around about 1:00am I decided that it was now or never so I pulled a chica and headed to the room. Honestly I can't remember a single thing about her.

Woke up 10:00am (damned time zones!) and headed straight to Hong Kong. Hung around for a couple of hours before taking Daniela arriba. 1500 pesos with bbbj. Met up with another monger from yet another board and we hit up HK, BT, and AB for fichas and flirting. We headed over to Cevicheria Nais for dinner (roasted octopus for me, tacos for him), and then back to AB. We each were sitting with a girl just talking and flirting and I looked up and he was gone. Guess he decided to take his girl upstairs (he had a room there). The guys at the table next to me started egging me on to go upstairs, and my girl was looking at me expectantly. However I was low on cash and had gone up just a while earlier so wasn't interested. She got pissed and left. Oh well, fuck her.
I met up with Monday's wingman at CC, where my buddy from today joined us. Then BT, LC, & AB (all dead) before heading to HK. It was quieter than Monday, but still nice to hang out at. Stayed three hours before taking Lula up. It was late and I was desperate so paid $80 plus a $20 propina for bbbj. Before she left she mentioned that her shift was done in an hour, and I joked that she could come back after she got off. After she was gone, I noticed that she left her watch in my room. For a minute I considered that she did it deliberately so she'd have an excuse to come back, but realized that was ridiculous. I went back down to the bar and found her and returned it. Hope I didn't mess up her plans, lol! Grabbed a quick cup of birria from the taco stand and headed to bed by 4am.
Wednesday, July 3
Packed up my stuff and checked out before noon and headed over to Hotel Coahuila. I've thought about staying there a few times, as I actually find a lot of girls at AB that I want to take upstairs. But I always get annoyed paying for a short-term room in one hotel when I have a nice room sitting unused next door. When I was in TJ in April, the TVs in AB were playing ads for the new and upgraded rooms "coming soon" to the Hotel Coahuila. I was hoping they'd be ready. Nope. The rooms were the same basic rooms used for short-time dates. Small, basic, but cheap. It was only $20 for the night, which was a bargain considering I'd pay $14(?) for a single arriba. The first room they gave me was still dirty from the last guest, so they had a guy go with me to let me pick out a room. The next one was OK, but the lock was broken. The next was fine, but there was some machinery noise droning on in the hall. I ended up picking a room at the far corner of the building, away from the noise and with no traffic walking back and forth as girls brought up clients. They guy went and grabbed the key for me and I was all set.
My wingmen were both ocupado (one working, one hung over) so I was solo for the afternoon. Spent it at AB interviewing dates before selecting Patricia (or Alicia?) for a nice arriba. Very affectionate and cuddly. Fee was $60 with BBBJ and DFK included. She's the first girl I'd consider another session with. Spent some time shopping and ate lunch at the BBQ truck in the zona gastro. I had a pretty good pork rib. Not Kansas City good, but ok for California barbecue.
Met back up with my wingman around 10:00 at CC. They were gearing up for their 4th of July party on Thursday, and the place was all red, white, and blue. The girls were all wearing outfits with American flags, or other US-themed costumes (one looked like a baseball player, another was a nurse for some reason). Hung out there for a while before checking out AB, BT, and then HK. Hong Kong was packed. I guess with Thursday being a holiday, all the Americans came down to party. It was WAY too crowded to be enjoyable, and I can't imagine what it would be like on Friday or Saturday. *shudder* We headed back to CC, which was perfect.
Around 1:00 we headed back to AB where I was looking to find my final arriba of the trip, but for some reason the girls were totally ignoring me. A girl came up to my wingman and sat with him for a while, but I couldn't get a second glance from anyone. No idea what was going on. Around 3:00, though, an older chica did sit down. She was not the most attractive girl, but she was friendly and affectionate so around 3:30 I offered $60 and we headed upstairs. Once in the room she was all over me, acting like we were lovers. She asked me to talk dirty to her ("Quien es tu puta?" "Eres mi puta!"). It was a pretty damned good time, and she didn't leave until after 5:00am. In the end I gave her $80 and she seemed happy. If I come down with something at my checkup in three months, I'll probably be able to figure out where it came from, lol.
Thursday, July 4
I slept for a couple of hours, but around 9:00 I got up and packed, then headed out to do some quick shopping before I headed home another monger recommended a couple of cigar shops where I wouldn't be ripped off, and I wanted to browse. The first one was supposed to open at 10:00, but I was there at 10:05 and it was closed. I stepped into Sanborn's but the guy at the cigar counter didn't know anything. When I went back to the other shop it was 10:20 and it was still closed and there was a line of people waiting outside for it to open. I was out of time so just headed back. No big deal, but another indication of how things work in Mexico.
Anyway, I grabbed my bags and headed to the border. While on my way to the airport I received a Whatsapp from Davora in CC. She told me she was working and asked me to come by. She was so cute and I wished I had time to see her. I apologized and told her maybe next time. Then I got a notice that my plane was delayed. Bad timing! Oh well. Got home around 9:00 and crashed hard.
I thought four nights might be a bit much for the zona, but it was about perfect for me. It's long enough that I'm not wasting all my time traveling, but not so long that I get burned out. I can't wait for my next trip. Maybe October, but more likely December.
