Guest Hoover42 Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 Oh crap it's upside down, why does Apple iPhone do that? It's a well-known problem with iPhone photos, especially when sent over email. One "trick" people use is to first turn the phone sideways and upside down before taking the shot so that the volume buttons are on the bottom left left of the phone. Quote
Guest Driver Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 Sunday was 117 day for me but first The beach was rammed, loads people and really busy. The hippy Market was just as I remembered it, worth a trip if you've never been before but if you have been once before probably you could leave it. 117 was okay not really busy but not exactly quiet many of the boys I'd seen before and had avoided. I am starting to learn not to go for the best looking boys but to try to get one a little bit less good-looking then everyone else. I chose a guy called William who was slightly acnead in one cheek that was good-looking wasn't buff but wasn't too out of shape. He wasn't rushed and kissed really well. Unfortunately when it came to me asking him to cum he wanted a little more but we had agreed the price beforehand. When he realised I wasn't happy he quickly agreed price agreed beforehand. We showered together and he was very friendly, and I offered him something to drink and something to eat at the bar. He turned up an hour later but was adamant that I had been his only client. I have agreed to meet him again on Tuesday and we will find him someone passive for him to fuck. I think I may take him back to the apartment afterwards. Now the gross bit, after we came back down from the room, I realised I had something stuck in my hair. It was chewing gum, I had to discreetly ask the chef for some cooking oil so that I could rub it into my hair to get rid of the chewing gum, thank fuck it worked. Neither I nor William Chew gum.

Guest Driver Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 William tried to persuade me to go to point 202 tomorrow because there are many clients, but tomorrow is Meio Mundo . Oddly, An American also suggested I go to point 202 on Wednesday apparently is the night to go there because they have introduced free cabins. So Wednesday will be a point 202 night out of nostalgia and investigative reasons Quote
Guest Driver Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 It's dawning on me that I have three nights in three different places, but just one chance in Meio Mundo to try three different guys (if they turn up). My plans rarely work but if Tuesday goes to plan I will be truly safado. Quote
Members docbr Posted September 8, 2014 Members Posted September 8, 2014 Thx for taking your time to report the news of the saunas Driver. As everyone else I love the pictures of the boys! Sorry to bring this up, but I don't think its cool to snap pictures of the "common" areas. One thing is ask the boy to pose for some pictures where he knows that you are taking them. Other is sneaking taking pictures of people who dont know nor want to be photographed. The saunas in Brazil always were a place where gay guys would enjoy a good time and enjoy some privacy... even in the smartphone era it (more or less) stayed that way. If guys perceive a bigger threat of exposure in the saunas less will come... and less clients mean less boys. PS. All the saunas have a "No Pictures" rule. Quote
Guest Driver Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 I get that now, I had taken a few previously of the stage and food and props at various times and never really gave it much thought. This was the first time anyone had mentioned it. Quote

So Wednesday will be a point 202 night out of nostalgia and investigative reasons I smiled when I glanced down and read "William tried to persuade me.... I write "smiled" because this place has been a 'NO, NO" for me ever since 2011, for it "aint" what it was during its beginning in the early 2000s. I first ventured there in 2003 in October of 2002 and during Carnaval in 2003, an evening that I'll always remember, not so much so for me although I had a swell time with a guy, but for my friend who I had just introduced to Point 202! He met a hot guy from Bahia, and the two of them were almost together in the cabin for over an hour. After I'd had my fun, I had to hunt for him before he reappeared out front! I then and I now!!! In 2010 and 2011 my last time in Rio, The Point was the pits! lookin 1 Quote

I've always felt very comfortable in being there and meeting the guys who, to me, have always been personable and down-to-earth, genuine young beings! lookin 1 Quote
Guest Driver Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 I hadn't appreciated it was a holiday weekend, the locals celebrating Independence Day. MM was very quiet to start off with, eventually it did get really busy at one point the boys outnumbered clients two to one. Many of the clients seem to go there to socialise with each other rather than to go with any one boy. I took Jonathan upstairs, his pictures are in Ihpguy's sex hotel thread and he was very good. When chatting to ihpguy, it became clear we had both been with William at 117 who was a whitish guy from the Salvador area. Quote
Members ihpguy Posted September 9, 2014 Members Posted September 9, 2014 I guess I left too early then. Aw shucks. flipao 1 Quote
Members axiom2001 Posted September 9, 2014 Members Posted September 9, 2014 Really enjoying these frontline reports, folks! Many thanks. Obrigado, Driver! I, too, am enjoying "these frontline reports!" ...liked the pics, too! I did not find them invasive, thus violating any type of privacy! You did well and thanks! flipao 1 Quote
Guest Driver Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 117 is busy with boys, at least fifty maybe more. Not many clients, maybe around twenty . I have my eye on a cute fitty, but he is hanging around the stairwell at the moment which sort of puts me off. I did say I would go against my judgement and see if a cute guy could be good and he may be the one I try. No sign of William who was going to be here today but I learned ages ago to take what a brasilian says with a pinch of salt when it comes to attending anywhere at any time. Quote
Guest Driver Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 By eight o'clock more clients had pored in. Very busy but boys still outnumber clients . There is a good mix of boys with someone for everyone (except maybe the cubby chasers) Quote
Guest Driver Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 By 21:15 many boys have dressed and left. An even mix of clients and boys, still busy but it has thinned out a bit. Quote
Guest Driver Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 Ok, point 202 at. 16;44 A handful of clients and maybe 10 boys , hopefully it will pick up. My key is 13, not that I'm superstitious (touch wood). First impressions are mixed, the bar has moved as has the stage. Steel chairs have been swapped for little sofas. The towels came in a laundered bag but no shoe boy, if you don't bring your own you will take your chances in the community box. They do have wifi though. Quote
Guest Driver Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 It's getting busier, Jefferson came in a I think got a client straight away. One of the boys said it doesn't get busy but from what I can see it's on a par with MM or 117 on a quiet night. Quote
Guest Driver Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 I expected to hate 202 but it was a good night. The bar staff didn't always notice you waiting and when you flushed the upstairs toilets, water came out from the flush button. The place needed a little attention. They have an upper roof bar where they can retract the roof and apparently they have bar-b-ques there. The downstairs toilets looked new although no spray hoses downstairs if you are btm. It was busier than last Wednesday when I saw both 117 and MM but it was only one week out of two so don't hate me if your experience is different. They had an act on and the same two strippers I have seen at least three times in rio. Photos of the stage area, a room and the outside. Quote
Guest Driver Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 Richard Kiel has died sadly, one of his films was Moon raker. Drax exported his weapons of mass destruction partly from Santos Dumont airport where I fly from later today. I have wanted to fly from this airport for a while, partly because of the views but now with a tinge of sadness. Quote
Guest Driver Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 Well I made it to Porto Alegre, there was drama at airport with my ticket, but I got here. Mezzaninu sauna is bright, they have showers in the bar area. I got here at 18:50 It took ten minutes to flag a taxi and the traffic was horrendous Quote
Guest Driver Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 There are not many clients but maybe 25 boys, mostly white but not exclusively so. Some cute ones. Quote
Guest Driver Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 Well I'm going up with Eduardo (vers) and Michele (top) i have no idea if the are good or not but they both know they have to come and Michele will be fucking Eduardo . Will try and get photos but in the meantime they are eating. The sauce is mustard, ketchup and mayo. Quote
Guest Driver Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 Well Eduardo said he would bottom but complained too much. Michele said he would top but couldn't get hard . He complained when Eduardo tried to top him . It was almost comical but I sort of enjoyed myself. My map for bar mixx was completely wrong. My taxi driver was a moron too. I jumped into another taxi and found it. A lot of darker guys here and they have wifi. More tomorrow. Quote
Guest Driver Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 The area Tomcal recommended is very pleasant, especially as it has just stopped raining. I am at the Mercure Manhattan and I am pleased with my room. I walked around the nearby park with my umbrella and I get the impression of an area doing alright. I struggled to find somewhere to get breakfast so I went to the shopping centre next to the Sheraton hotel and had a chicken salad from one of the places on their food floor. It was a chicken club bowl of salad for R$18.40 As others have said, you would struggle to find enough to do here for more than a few days which is a shame as some of the local guys are gorgeous.

Members axiom2001 Posted September 12, 2014 Members Posted September 12, 2014 There are not many clients but maybe 25 boys, mostly white but not exclusively so. Some cute ones. You're in an area of Brasil where the ethnicity has Italian roots! The complexion of the populace is primarily of lighter hue! TomCal and a might few others have apprised us of this! The same for Sao Paulo and Curitiba, two places to which I've traveled! i didn't write the above to discount your take or posting! flipao and lookin 2 Quote
Guest Driver Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 Well I took an early taxi because I wasn't sure of the traffic but ended up killing time at the shopping centre Bourbon. Got to mezzaninu at 16:14 not many clients, not sure how many boys but three of them immediately felt the need to shower in the bar area. Quote
