Here is a post of first trip to PI. The only thing that I can recommend is stick to the advice of the pros that know the city and the people. I had a bit of drama the first couple of days that could have been easily avoidable if I had listened to the pro’s and handled my business the correct way. I chalk it to a lesson learned and realize is that the best thing to do is NEVER make promises, and be upfront about what you want when you’re there. Progman put it best when he told me “it’s your vacation” and you have to work out on what you want out of your trip. These are not the type of women that you normally deal with so it’s a whole different approach.

Day 1 –

After leaving home 37 hours prior I finally touch down in Manila. Customs was not a problem and breezed right through to meet my driver that had been arranged by The Orchid Inn. I know there are quite a few agencies that do this but I highly recommend the drivers there from Orchid. They made sure we stopped and picked up enough beer for the two hour trip to Angeles, and also was very helpful in arranging for things to do while in the city that did not involve women or beer…I take that back, nothing in Angeles is done without women or beer. Couple hours of Manila traffic and we arrive in Angeles. Be warned for anyone that has not been to a third world country that the drive in can be pretty disturbing when you see some of the living conditions that they live in. As soon as I get to the hotel I get checked in, shower and hit the bar by the pool. I found it pretty easy to strike up conversation with some of the others their. If you do not know anyone when you go out to Angeles you will find that it is not a problem to meet up with them. Soon I met up with Prog, LasVegasLites, and B. As a side note I think that the people you are with on your vacation can make a huge impact on the time you have. These three guys were all outgoing great guys and a lot of fun to party with. They made the trip I am sure 10 times better. Shortly after meeting them it was down to Santos to take the edge off a bit. I stopped off and grabbed a shave real quick which was a fun experience and a great shave. Quickly after I am upstairs at the Black Pearl where I get a bit of pressure release from just the cutest girl who really knew what she was doing. What a way to start the trip!! This is where I learned the lesson that if you say something it is considered a promise. For instance the girl asked if I come back tomorrow, and my immediate answer is saying sure without really knowing if I would. I made it as an off-hand remark not realizing that this is considered a promise to these women. I should have learned my lesson. I decided to rest up a bit then we hit TomCat later on for an SOB meeting. What a blast! Women from all the clubs attending, free drinks for you, and a meal – all for about 8 US dollars. Unfortunately I was way to tired to to continue going. It had been about 48 hours with no sleep and heavy drinking and I was crashing hard. I decided to head out but was going to take a girl back just to crash out with me and get a little bit in the morning. I ended taking a waitress who had not bar fined before and was very cherry. I figured she would have no problem with crashing for the night. I get back to the room and we spend a bit chatting and find out she is a pretty good person with a great head on her shoulder. She had quite the roadmap and what she was doing and what she was trying to get to. A real sweetheart and for a single guy with no family and a busy work life it would be the ideal type to get involved with. Not a good thought to start out what was supposed to be nine days of debauchery. Next morning was a surprise when she started menstruating. So much for taking care of the morning wood, but no problem enjoyed a good breakfast with her and sent her on the way.

I will be going to AC for the first time this summer, and have taken in the good advice from this site, i wish i could go there sooner, good luck on your next girls

"It's your vacation"

Sounds like all us AC vets give out the same advice!!

I told Porker on his second day there - the girls here will run/ruin your vacation if you give them a chance to!! Remember, no matter how sweet/charming/considerate/dynamite in the bed they are, it is YOUR vacation. A girl latching onto you is not doing it because she loves you (contrary to how it may feel at that time). She is looking out for herself, her family and her Filipino boyfriend by keeping YOUR money flowing into HER pockets!! She may get rant, rave, cry and/or stomp her foot, but it's YOUR money/time being burned. Never forget that.

The other rule: NEVER promise ANYTHING unless you are 10000000000% sure you're gonna do it!! ALWAYS answer with "maybe" if you're considering a course of action, but never, ever EVER give a bargirl the HINT of a promise or she'll haunt you the whole trip!! I had one try to pull some "you promised" bullshit INSIDE the Champagne bar (Prog - remember Liway?) in front of other girls. I burned her to the GROUND in front of the other girls for lying about that!! The other girls are smart enough and know me - I would not do that.

Looks like you had a great start to your trip!! Looking forward to reading the rest!!
