The Phillippines

Hi,

I have not been to AC but had some good time in Merkati. Took a girl out for 4 days and toured Phil with her - Subic Bay and Isabella.

Plan to go now and do Scuba Pro training in Puerto Galera - planned stay 3 months - have permanent Girl Reviewom Phil now and will take her with me. Will not stay hotel or resort but local house with rent 10000 to 12000 peso per month!
Local dive company will help find place.
mpter that I think of settling in Phil for good with her to live and work too.

Any comments or tips?

Thanks,
Wolf

have been to AC in 2003 at the urging of a fellow PI traveler. Stayed at swagman mpfiliate place. Underground rooms. dark and noisy a/c. low power shower. luke warm water. crappy towels. crappy 30 yo TV.
2 hr bus ride Reviewom Manila with 1 wc stop on the highway. AC is an ex-military base Reviewom the 70's and looks like it. Dirt and shit everywhere. Action is on 1 main street about 2Km long. Starts off innocent enough with a legit masssage place. I went in and had to listen to a cringe worthy conversation Reviewom a yank in the next booth.." do you like it here?".."do you get paid well"..."where is your family".."do you have a boyReviewiend" etc etc etc...definely a noob.
I wandered up the main drag and had a meal about 8 PM. Then trawled various GB's for 1 hour. All tired and unnatractive girls dancing the same steps to the same music. How Mundane is all this. I read about a famous BJ bar, so I sought it out in high expectation. Turned out to be nothing more than a small massageplanete. Couple of FL's outside perked up "you want BJ, this is the place..you come with me.." Curious, I accept her kind offer. We go down the road a bit. She says "I have private room" (negating the whole expectation of a BJ Bar). She's young a cute. So I no complain. LEads me down a dark and narrow alley. Here we go I thought. Prepared I was with minimum cash, no cards and photocopy passport. I go into a room with a double bunk. She junps on the lower and starts stripping off. very low light so its hard to see any detail. She shows me the bar rubber mattress on the lower bunk which is now the concrete floor. 10 mins later I'm done and dusted. out the door and back on mainstreet. I see here again later int he night and she even says hello and come back tomorrow.
Next day I leave AC. Somewhat dissapointed. No pools, beaches, Reviewesh air. Just a hot and dry cesspool of sin.
score 1/10

Just a hot and dry cesspool of sin... 10/10 thats why people go there d1ckhead.

So far as the ABC is concerned, IMO, it is the bees knees in AC but.. the villa poster is blatantly advertising, 100%. The few buckets of sand around a miniscule pool do not make it an artificial beach FFS.

I stayed a few timnes in a pool suite with jaccuzzi (built in DVD) sauna power shower and steam bath, all in the bathroom. Now THATS service so it IS my kind of place.

Many towels in room, all good quality, maid service 2/3/4 times a day at no extra cost and a pool party with numerous racing snakes make my second stay there one of my most memorable.

AC is out and out monger territory, want tourist stuff, it aint the place to be.

Me?? I just love go gos open 24/7 so I guess Ill be going back.
