Well, I let Miriam go, and spent the day with several Hombres. Had a bite to eat at the TA with Sweet and a couple of other guys.

For those who have never been to Rio, here are a couple of pics of Alcazar, Terraco Atlantica and the soon to be closing HELP.



Help with the TA in front of it.


Today, I met the Legendary Bwana_Dik, and I must say, I was not disappointed. You are a great Guy Bwana and it was a sincere pleasure to meet you. Went to lunch with Bwana and CortoGringo, another first rate monger. They selected an Arabic place. They were going to the one recommended by the pipe smokers at the Irish Pub. They said that it had all sorts of these pipes and a broad selection of tobacco flavors, so I was intrigued.

Alas, it was closed for renovation and so the alternate was another Arabic place called “Asia” on Atlantica. Nice environment, good mood music, and a pleasant chance to get to know Bwana and CortoGringo better. Later, I made the trek to both Solarium to see Amanda and later, went to Luomo. It was near closing time when I arrived at Luomo, and Daniella was there. She had become a little possessive, and not wanting to ruin the setting for her overnight stage, I feigned disinterest in the other girls. CortoGringo was laughing at my discomfort, telling me to just do what I wanted, but I kind of wimped out which brought even greater laughter from CG. As they are making the last call for Cabine’s, I see Daniella heading into the back with a customer….now I am a bit miffed, as it is too late for me to take anyone else. 10 minutes AFTER the last call, CG wanders up and introduces me to the legendary Bia….Now I am hacked, I missed out on grabbing the scrumptious Brenda by 2 minutes during the last call fiasco, and now CG introduces me to a gal I have wanted to tag for months, after it is too late to take her……Grrr. I went home tired and annoyed, but still managed to sleep well.

Oh, well, there is always tomorrow!

It was a pleasure meeting you as well, Val! Good food, good sights, good bunda. I especially enjoyed the evening at Solarium. Your sweetie there is a special one!

BTW, the name of the restaurant we ended up at was Arabe. They have a great lunch buffet. We first went to Amir's, but it's being renovated.

Looking forward to the remainder of your report. Maybe someday we'll get CG to write a report, but it will be short. Something like: "Tuesday I sessioned with Bia twice. Wednesday I sessioned with Bia twice and kissed some of the other girls. Thursday I was tired and only sessioned with Bia once." Etc.

Did I miss the memo? I know there's been discussion in the past that HELP may be closing and then arguements that it wasn't going to be so. If true, when is it expected to close. Nice reporting by the way.....

All I can say is what I was told by Don. The owners of the business and the owners of the building have had an ongoing dispute, and the building is supposedly to be demolished and replaced with a new high rise. No proof either way, so I guess I am just adding more fuel to the fire, but that is what I heard.
