    04/2015 - Boca Chica April 17-21

    By way of introduction:

    I can't exactly call myself a "Lurker" -- that would imply that I logged in, read the boards and didn't contribute. Nope... I created a login for myself a while back, and never really used it. I immediately saw the value in the paid membership though, so once I started I've been reading like crazy. There's a lot of information here.

    Anyway I've postponed my first DR trip at least six times by now. Whether wingmen flaked, I chickened out, or unforeseen budget constraints... But now I'm finally making my first trip.

    Flight is booked and paid.
    Hotel is booked and paid.
    PTO from work is auto-approved.
    Spending money is locked up.

    This is happening.

    Thanks to you all for sharing your experiences and perspectives. Because of you, I expect my vacation to be safer and more enjoyable than it may otherwise have been.

    Cheers,

    morpheus

    04/2015 - Boca Chica April 17-21: "Plan A."

    Im not going to bombard the board with a bunch of n00b questions, since I know (and enjoy) the search function...

    What I will do instead, is let you all in on some of my plans. That way, if anything is glaringly fucking stupid or dangerous, I'm sure someone will chime in and I will reconsider.

    My goal for this trip is quality over quantity. That goes for chicas, food, booze, everything. From what I've read, I can afford to be picky. So I don't intend to settle for the first or second opportunity presented. I'm actually content just to be on a tropical vacation, hang at the beach and eat huge cheap delicious meals. I'm extremely easygoing.

    But make no mistake... I also <3 toto.

    Since I'm traveling alone I'm packing really light. Like, a backpack. I'm not bringing any valuables, jewelry, gifts, or anything that would upset me if it was lost, stolen or destroyed. I won't let chicas outnumber me in my room, and I'm restricting my alcohol intake outside of the hotel.

    Fri Apr 17 I leave Newark airport ~8PM. Assuming I survive the flight, I arrive in Santo Domingo ~midnight.
    I'm going to change over some currency right then and there, to get it over with.
    Then I will take a taxi to The Garant, freshen up and "settle in"
    That first night I'm just looking to get acclimated and observe the way things work... but if I see something I like, I will go for it.

    Saturday early I plan to find a ST, then an afternoon nap. I'm not sleeping Saturday night.

    Sunday/Monday I'm looking to lock in a TLN pretty early in the game so I don't have to keep thinking about it.

    And then Tue Apr 21 I fly out of SDQ with a grin on my face, and a couple chicas on the ground crying "No me dejas, papi!"

    So that's Plan A. hahahaha... for the next ten days I'm going to continue reading the hell out of this forum and filling in the details.

    I thank you all in advance for your feedback.

    - morpheus

    P.S. now i have to thank you in arrears... you guys respond really quick!

    I assumed the airport would be a ripoff, but my concern is that it would already be midnight.
    If li'l morph refuses to pipe down, is someplace open at that hour, so I can get pesos and feed him?
    I can't have him yelling at me all night while I wait for a place to open... especially when I know full well that people all around me are smashing it at that very moment

    That reminds me, how thin are the walls at Garant?

    You see my 75 Thank yous? I'm one grateful motherfucker!

    BTW I was wondering what's GBD? I pulled up nil when I searched (which was odd, because it should have at least pulled up the report i'm referencing), and nothing on urban dictionary. I googled too.

    Just use the ATM at the airport then. Walls are thick enough.

    You are right at Midnight 1am all the money changers in Boca will be closed, so just get 4 or 5000 at the Airport to get you started then change the rest the following day, You will see several on the main drag with signs showing the rates.

    2 for 1500! if you are feeling up for it. but the action all goes down on site, take out is more expensive and probably leaves you open for an upcharge or inflated pricing.i too found a thread on here regarding that gbp place and then the thread disappeared. i got directions off a google search and looking through. used the direction when taking a taxi and i was able to get there a few times.
