We still hadn't spoken about money so I initially gave her $50 US. She said something about $100, but I pretended not to understand. She then asked for $20 more. I gave her $10 and she seemed happy with that. As we walked by the Voramar pool, a couple men were staring at Jenny which she seemed to really enjoy. She tried not to make it too obvious, but it was apparent she was interested in hooking up more clients. I told her she could go talk to them if she wanted, but she said it was OK, she would wait for me tonight if I wanted to see her again or she would find those guys or another client if I didn't. She had the perfect working lady mindset.
She walked out to the room, but she was thirsty so we walked back to the bar near the pool to get her some orange juice. She was trying to be sly, but I could easily see her fishing for interest with cute little smiles which would come my way when I looked up. After the drink, we walked back out to the road.
I went back to the room while she went to catch a moto just in case she changed her mind and really did want to talk to the other men. I was very happy and satisfied with Jenny, and didn't mind if she wanted to get more business. After getting the room and some of my personal effects in order, I headed back out and walked into town.
I stopped by the Sosua Palace where I met Oneida, a lady I recognized from photos. She was fairly attractive, but not enough to get me to take her back to my room at the time. Mercedes and Soronji were also there along with a few of the guys including Tattoo, Maxx and Safado. All of the gentlemen I met were mostly from New York.
I didn't get a lot done this day, it was mostly a day for relaxation. I walked around the small town getting better acquainted with it, ate food, and visited the beach. I made mental notes of where the internet cafes, ATMs, markets, and smaller bars were. I ate at a small place specializing in Italian food where I ordered Penne pasta with onions and bacon in a tomato based sauce. I thought it was filling and delicious, but I'm a poor food connoisseur, so don't put too much faith in any of my food recommendations. The gentleman running the place also gave me a shot of some kind of drink for digestion. I'm not sure what it was, but it sounded like he was calling it "marijuana".
In the early evening I was walking by the Merengue Club where I let one of the men working outside pull me in. I entered with the intent of checking all the ladies out and maybe talking to Sophia or her sister, but the man that led me in called a specific lady over as soon as I was seated. I have no idea why he called this particular lady over, I was not attracted to her, I was put in a position where I'd have to turn her down after she was specifically called over, and I never asked to be seated with company. I ordered a drink while this lady and several others I wasn't attracted to tried to capture my attention. I mostly kept to myself, but smiled to Sophia when she walked around behind me. I stayed in the spot for a short while longer while the ladies continued to try to talk to me, but I paid my bill and walked to the other end of the bar when I got annoyed by the ladies starting to ask if I'd buy them drinks when it should have been obvious I wasn't really interested in their company.
While I was walking to the other end of the bar, the man that led me in asked if anything was wrong. I responded a bit sharply that I didn't ask him to arrange company for me. He shrunk back a little and I continued to some open seating at the end of the bar where I wasn't right in the middle of a bunch of ladies. I spent a few minutes checking the place out. Most of the people were sitting on the barstools surrounding the large bar that takes up a good portion of the large space here. The restrooms were in the back right corner past some tables and a pool table. The back left area had some space which looked like it could be used for a dance area, but it wasn't at the time.

I got distracted when Sophia walked by again and invited her to a drink. I was tempted to spend some private time with her, but I was still hesistant seeing her body up close, I was hoping to find a lady with a tighter body. Sophia also had a "solidness" about her that was slightly reminiscent of a masculine build. I didn't question her sexuality, but the thought still bothered me a bit. I spoke with Sophia a short while longer before continuing my walk back towards the Voramar.
On the way there, I was waved down in front of a place called Yuby's restaurant. The lady introduced herself as Yuby. She was a little older, probably in her 30's, but she was pretty and work a black top that accentuated some very nice cleavage. I came in to order a drink and talked with her for a short while. While there, I looked at the menu which seemed very basic and uninteresting. I asked Yuby about the restaurant and she told me she didn't own it, but that it was named after her. I wanted to take Yuby back with me, but it was apparant that she was running the place and they wouldn't be closing until late at night. Yuby seemed to indicate some interest in spending more time with me, but I wasn't really sure when, where, and how we would work this out. A customer came in to order some food shortly thereafter, so I waved goodbye to Yuby while she was stuck cooking food in the kitchen.

I spent a bunch of time in my room until I was ready to go back out at night. I walked down the dark street until a moto came by to pick me up. I had walked by a place called the Blue Dolphin which I thought was a strip club, so I had the driver take me there. I told him to wait briefly while I took a look inside. It looked more like a small resort hotel. I couldn't hear any music and there were only a few people standing at a bar I could see in the distance, so I left and hopped back on the bike where I had the driver take me to the D'Latino's Club.
The description I got from the gentlemen at the Sosua Palace was that the D'Latino's Club was a nice pickup location, but was a very small place that was uncomfortable and packed. When I arrived at 11:30pm, the place was still somewhat empty, but fortunately they don't charge a cover charge like High Caribe. I ordered a White Russian and sat for a while to scope the place and see if it picked up. The location of this place seems unusual. D'Latino's Club is on the second story of a building a generic entrance between Alf's Internet Cafe and Tours on one side, and a music shop on the other. After walking the short flight of stairs, you enter a doorway to your right to see a relatively small room with bar stools and tables surrounding a small dance floor. You start off in the corner of the room and can see the single bar on the opposite wall with the men's restroom in the opporsite corner past the dance floor. The ladies restroom is to your right past some couches, and there are also some couches in the corner if you walk straight ahead from the entrance. There's not much to the place beyond that.
An overweight but friendly lady soon asked to sit with me and I accepted. She hung her leg over mine and we talked for a while over a beer that I bought for her. She tried to talk me into taking her back to my room, but I wasn't interested in her. I soon got bored and decided to check out some of the smaller bars, maybe pop in to Merengue and check out Sophia or her sister. The lady I was with asked for a gift before I left, but I declined to give her anything. Tattoo and Maxx were walking up just as I was leaving. I told them that the place was empty, but since there was no cover I suggested we go up again just to take a look. They seemed surprised that it was this slow at this time. We only stayed for a few minutes before leaving.
On the way out we finally passed by two attractive ladies coming up while we were walking down. I was taken aback by the one with the nicer body and dark toned skin, so I hardly noticed the other, but both Tattoos and Maxx said they were both attractive. We continued walking to stop by some of the smaller places.
I pointed out Sophia when we passed by the Merengue Club. Both of them thought she was attractive. I mentioned the sister looked even better, but that I didn't see her this evening.
I spoke of Yuby while we were walking. Maxx recognized the name and said she had a horrible reputation for scamming men and that her clothes hid some ugly scars on her body. According to what she had read, Yuby was well known among the DR regulars. He believed her to be married, but still making arrangements to go with men to their rooms where she would take their money, but complain of stomach pain or find another way to shorten the sex if not get out of it entirely. It seemed very unlike the friendly lady I had met earlier, but then again the best scammers usually come across well. All of the personal details he knew matched, so I had no question we were talking about the same lady.
We eventually came to the restaurant, so I indentified it to Maxx and Tattoos who had never been there. Yuby saw me and came outside. I stepped up to her to say hi, but told her we were on our way to the disco. As we continued walking, Maxx commented that he now understood why there was so much talk about Yuby, he thought she was really attractive. I mentioned it was probably unlikely, but that I would consider trying my own luck with her. Maxx was interested in that, he wanted to hear some personal confirmation if she was really that bad because he found her attractive.
It started to rain, so we quickly found some motos to take us to the High Caribbean. We paid our cover and walked inside where we hung around for a while, but we all were somewhat disappointed in the selection. Jenny was there, and they thought she was attractive, but besides that we saw relatively few ladies that stood out from the moderate number of ladies available. Tattoos seemed most interested in a Haitian regular that he knew while Maxx expressed interest in seeking out a regular from a smaller bar that we was trying to develop a "special" relationship with. Jenny bumped me a couple times while walking by and smiled to me, so I said hi to her but didn't express interest in hooking up again. It wasn't long after that she got another gentleman on the dance floor. I watched them for a while, she was hardly all over him as she was with me the previous night, but he looked enraptured regardless and Tattoos commented that she had a sure thing.
With the selection appearing to have reached it's peak but nothing standing out, I decided to head back to D'Latino's for the lady I saw while we were leaving. Tattoos remained where he would eventually hook up with his regular. Maxx wanted to hang out for a little longer, but mentioned that he'd probably see me there a short while later. I caught a moto outside, asking how much he was charging for where we were going. His response was whatever I wanted to pay him, so I hopped on and off we went.
I was generally paying 50 pesos which is less than $1.50 US, but generous for a short ride. For some reason I ended up only handing this driver 30 pesos which is still a good rate for the distance. He mentioned that it was 50 pesos and I reminded him that he told me to pay what I wanted. He still wanted 50, but I just said thanks and walked away. I had no problem, but this probably isn't a good idea for the common traveler to get into this kind of money disagreement over such a small amount. For those with money concerns, or those that just really hate the thought of being charged "gringo" prices, my suggestion is to always negotiate a set price, or to tell whoever you are purchasing a service from exactly how much you will be paying if they won't say.
Things had picked up in the D'Latino's Club. It was busy with lots of people, but it seemed like there were a lot more men than ladies. The population also seemed a lot more local than the High Caribbean, where music, ambiance, and a cover charge targeted a more American and European audience. My target was busy dancing with another gentleman, so I walked around. There were two attractive ladies near the front, but they looked professional and hardly smiled. A third petite beauty that looked more Indian than Dominican was standing near the bar, but she didn't seem very friendly either. I ordered a beer, standing next to the petite lady waiting to see if she would take an interest in me or if my target would free up. The petite one never smiled, but fortunately the gentleman that was with my lady of interest eventually disappeared.
Strangely I cannot recall her name, so I'll just refer to her as Ebony. We talked and drank for a while before I invited her back to my place. While we were leaving, she asked how much I would be paying. I mentioned 1000 pesos to which she seemed really surprised. She said she normally charged 2000, but would go with me for 1500 for short time. We agreed and caught a moto back to the Voramar.
Again we came in without an ID check and got to the room where I had a blast. Ebony was very passionate with lots of kissing, a sensual BBBJ, and she was a wild ride. She was tired afterwards, so we both fell asleep forgetting about our short time arrangement.
