Night 1 (Thursday)

The last time I was in San Jose, it was my novice trip so I didn’t know key factors like IDEM’s closed at 12:00mid. With this in mind, I checked into the Presidente, took a quick shower, popped a Viagra and quickly walked over to the Del Rey. BadaBing and I had emailed each other and set 10:30pm to meet over by the Del Rey Sports Book. It was 10:45pm when I walked in and shook BadaBing’s hand. He had terrible luck in getting here from the West Coast – being bumped from his flight, re-routed through El Salvador and then finally getting here after 15 hours, but without his luggage. He was already hooked up with his favorita, but we both were scanning the abundant talent walking around the floor. The bar was jam-packed, just like last time. If I was going to get to IDEM, I had to make my move now. Bada understood and we said we’d try to hook up on Saturday (unfortunately this never happened – too bad because BadaBing comes across as a really nice guy). I hopped into a cab and was drinking a screwdriver at IDEM 7 minutes later. I exchanged pleasantries with Roberto and because of the late hour, there were only four girls around. I chose Melissa, a 27-year old Nica who has been studying English for the last 8 months. We took a room upstairs, I paid whatever the cost is (17,000 col?) and Melissa started off with a great massage, followed by a BBBJ, multiple positions and a pop. We showered together and went back downstairs where things were winding down. Said goodnight to everybody and the security guy hailed me a taxi. I was going to go back to the hotel, but decided to give Molino Rojo a quick look. I paid the doorman 1,000 col (should be 1,200, but when I gave him two 1,000 bills, he gave me one back) and he gave me a drink ticket. I walked through the door right at the stroke of midnight and was floored: There were 25+ girls all throughout the place – sitting at tables, standing along the wall, sitting at the bar. There were about 3 Ticos, just drinking and watching. And then there was me. One note on the girls: all of the Molino Rojo girls are noticeably younger than the women at the Del Rey, IDEM and New Fantasy. Not underage by a long shot, but late teens to early 20s as opposed to late 20s, early 30s at the other venues. I exchanged my ticket for an Imperiali and surveyed the scene. The last time (and only time) I was here, there were half as many girls and the quality was low. This time I literally saw a dozen I that were doable. And then I saw “Shakira” (not her real name – but that’s who she looked like and that’s what I called her). She had long curly blond hair and a body to match. If she had her nose done she would have approached 8.5 territory. I walked up to her and said Hola and Vamos. No need for an interview – I’m not looking for a girlfriend, I’m looking to fuck somebody for half an hour. We go to the back where I pay 6,000 col and we head to the room. There’s no way to sugarcoat it, the rooms suck. A bed covered with a sheet in dubious sanitary condition and a single bare red light bulb. And a sign in Spanish saying to please put all used condoms in the trash can. Would it be outrageous to bring my own sheet, like a cheap $5 odd-lot sheet that I then throw away? That, a couple of candles and some background music would really enhance the experience. Anybody have any thoughts on that? Anyway we get right down to business, nice bbbj then just frenzied fucking that would have broken the headboard had there been one. She cleaned me off and we both got dressed – don’t know if there’s a shower on premises but it wasn’t offered and I didn’t ask. We made some small talk and how can I put this delicately – I noticed a certain smell in the air and wondered if there might be any for sale. She understood exactly what I was saying and told me to sit on the bed and she’d be right back. 2 minutes later she was back with an older woman who I had seen with a mop earlier. A transaction ensued and I left a very happy man. The security guard shook my hand and hailed me a taxi that sped off to the Presidente. It was now 1:00am and I went to bed a happy man.
