Angeles City (Balibago) Tips

[wansomemilk]

Hi bros,

I'll be there first time with a friend, on 25th May. Would be happy to tag along any other groups in the area. Can only stay one day, so really have to make it worth the time ;<

No hotel plans yet. Should we book online or just walk-in? any advice? Will likely stay near Fields Ave.

any advice welcome. kindly PM me.

Cheers,
WSM

Well during my stay back then, rooms are total occupied in Natalia. So hope you be able to get a room if you intend to walk-in. I am new in this field so not sure is it the peak or lull period now. Maybe some bro's able to share info about this.

This is the start of the "shoulder" or off peak" season, meaning not high or low season but inbetween.

But regardless of seasons, almost all the popular hotels are full year round which is kinda strange as you would think the bars will be busy but they are not. So, if you plan to stay at the popular hotels at Fields, always best to book ahead. If you can settle for 2nd best then almost all the time something is available walk-in, but most likely not on Fields itself.


Also, upped you with points for your good FR. Keep it up.

This is not to inflame any race riots, its just from my observations from many years in AC.

Americans are not the worst. They could be rude when drunk but otherwise ok.

The worst are the Koreans (thinking they own the world or at least everywhere they have a business or vacation in) and thinking they can buy themselves anything they want, including getting out of trouble--Sadly in a corrupt country, their money (and lots of it) works for them.
And the English--when they are drunk, watch out. Whoever coined the phrase "an English gentlemen" never met one in AC that was drunk.

And watch out for the Filipinos as some are very aggressive when drunk, so be very careful of them as they have home turf advantage and you could easily be outnumbered 10 to 1 in a matter of minutes.

Just to add, Trust me as you will know when the low season is, that will be time when you have to "swim" to the nearest bar from your hotel almost everyday.

Think a typhoon have hit Philippines and if not wrong Angeles are sort of being affected by it. So any bro's there do take care and be safe.

Well I am lucky just to meet 1 rather than 3 of them during my trip. Well think Korean have infested Angeles, thats why with $ = power.

[Wetdevil]

Hmmm not sure shall I cont. my FR over there or just let it go. Cause its going to be like what I did there and not much new stuff or details to share.

So what you guys think ?
Stop or cont. the FR from Day-5(28 Apr) to Day-9(2 May)

[inluv07]

Wetdevil, please continue.

Re Mitch from LIA, she's very popular & known to be good performer. Pretty high mileage though...

[etsys]

High Mileage also means no need to teach the ropes .. but, well, I would double wrap it up ..

1) on the plane have to fill up the arriving and departure white form.
2) on arriving, one can choose to leave the plane from 1 of the 2 exits(front and back) to the ground by the stairs. Then you have to walk around 5 min or so to the airport building as the plane are not park next to the building but a distance away.
3) like most airport, the immigration are divided into foreign and local passport. For my case I am lucky cause mostly are local on the plane I was.
4) immigration officer will return you the departure white form and yr passport.
5) when headed to the clearance zone, the officer there will take the departure form. So when you step out of the airport you just have your passport and no form.
6) $ rate at the airport is not as good as compare to the money-changers at field ave. So change your $ at the money-changers around your hotel area.
7) main transport is trike or jeepney. Trike cost more from 50p for short distance while around 100p while further away while jeepney cost only 10p. So if you want to go Lost in Asia or Back to school best to take a jeepney.
8) SML and LD varies in cost due to the place + HH. So do check with the waitress to be sure the price you be paying
9) 1 can choose to reject the waitress if they suggested that the gal like to have a 250p or 300p LD. Most time LD cost 150p unless they go for the bigger LD.
10) not sure is it a must, but its wise for you to leave 10p - 20p when the waitress returns to give you the changes after you pay the bill. for bro southaddress and I always leave 20p.
11) most gals there like to eat the green peas, so if you are kind enough you can either buy for them when the peanut vendors arrive or let the gals choose what they like. 1 small holder cost 20p.
12) when heading back, you will be issued a departure form "again" to fill in 11) then you can head and check-in 1st before you go and pay the airport tax.
13) after that can proceed directly to the immigration where they will collect the departure form.
14) then there will be 1 thorough check point, where everyone have to remove their belts, shoes, slippers etc etc.
15) another check by airline staff on yr passport. During my time it was split by 2 airline, SEAIR and Air Asia.

Happens to me not sure is it always happen
16) someone from the airport will approach you to do some survey
17) UNICEF personnel will also approach you too.

other info
+++++++
fast food restaurants over there.
KFC / Mc Donald / Chow King (like this alot especially the chilli that come with it. I always take combo A{pork fried rice + 1 drink + 3 siew mai})/ Jolibee(most gals like this. I like this too{set C2 where 2 pieces of chicken + 1 drink + 1 rice + 1 sauce})

Hope this can help. And if any bros spotted any mistake feel free to amend and update it.

hi bro wetdevil..great to meet up with you and bro southaddress in AC. I not as good as writing FRs like u ler..haha
Seems like u had a great time there. Good info u provided for 1st timers so i thought i'll just add some additional info/tips as well.
Additional tips:

1.After u clear customs on arrival, u need to submit ur declaration card and see if they wanna check ur bag. Usually they won't check if you are tourist. However, they will ask u if you have more than 10,000pesos AND if you brought US$. Just reply No to both and just say you here for a short trip. Cos if you say yes to the US$ bit..u goin to pay some kopi money. Happened to a fren of mine on my 2nd trip there.

2. After the big party in AC and on the way back, remember to stash aside 600p for departure tax.

3. At the "take off shoes and stuff" checkpoint, this is where the pirates lurk. DO NOT..i repeat DO NOT have large amts of cash in 1 place(i.e bag or wallet..esp for those bros that won big at the casino!) as they will find any ways or means to take money off u. What i always do is try to spend all the pesos..keep any S$ in ur passport holder etc..keep 100p in ur jeans/trousers pocket. They will find it when they frisk u and just say.."for u to buy a drink" They will smile and say"thank you boss" and your trip ends very pleasantly. Happened to me this last trip as well. My previous trip, my fren had a s$10 in his wallet..they took it as a "souvenier of singapore". So please take note!

Was in AC in the last week of April and had the honour to meet up with bros wetdevil and southaddress for a few drinks and lunch Had a great time and do let me know next time u all goin and see if we can meet again.

Not a good FR writer as bro wetdevil but would just like to share amazing and wild things i experience this trip to AC. This was my 5th trip there and havent seen anything like that before!

Item 1
-was with bro southadress at Typhoon when i picked up by barfine. A 20 yr old syt dancer. (sorrie din take names or nums). Good figure, tight and young but the most amazing was that this wild gal's fetish. Her fetish was to watch jap av porn on her mobile while bonking!!! So in summary, i was bonking her in missionary position as she held her mobile..playing jap gangbang av on full vol while both of us watched it! Simply mindblowing experience!!

Item 2
-spent my last nite in AC at Skytrax disco. Such brillant coincidence that they had an event there and there was a bodylicking contest..3 girl dancers body licking each other and even the customers who would pay! Crazy and wild parties there i must say so do bring ur gal there for a nites fun!

Just some snippets that i'd like to share. If u like it, be good if i can get a few more points..haha.

I simply love AC
