She reinforced that the best option is the Internet option. I believed her!
FYI: The babe will be 27, in three months.
Left for the evening at 9:45 p.m. returning at 2:45 a.m.
First walked to the "Galata Bridge" My 1st choice "Maxicala" had a whole lotta lookers, and great music, but the service was total shit! Just dumb punks working there really. Went 30 meters west to a seafood joint that was excellent. Started with a 350 ml. bottle of "raki", the local firewater. Then a Russian salad, fried calamari, 3 jumbo prawns, grilled with veggies, toast bread for the black olive paste, and a water. Had a great view of the Bosphorus Strait even though it began to drizzle abit! I was one well-fed happy camper. Then a "free" fruit salad, some Turkish pastry and a very strong (blow your head off) Turkish coffee. Damage tip included, only 150 TL; and the prawns themselves were 20 TL a pop.
In the drizzle flagged down a taxi.
Got to "Reina's". Huge line-up!!!
Walked to the front and slipped the main man a 50 lira note to stroll in.
The place was packed, hot & sweaty.
Probably 100 "9's", 200 "8's", and a whole lotta others. Too bad security goons every 10 ft. Had to be careful to get any clear shots. The music was great, the place enormous, but was a little restricted by the outdoor patio sector near the bridge because of the rain.
Can you score in here? Of course! Just learn to pick the pros from the party girls and don't grab some local's chica!
I sipped Chivas and sodas. Had six @ 30 TL a pop (18 bucks each) before saying "uncle".
Lots of taxis out front.
Cost me 25 to return to the apartment.
Watched a little tube and sipped some more until about 4:30.
