Will be in Vietnam 2-3 weeks...

Alphawolf · 2005-02-23, 01:34 AM

Starting Thursday I embark on a long ass trip. 1st to Boston where I meet with the folks I'm flying with- then leave 4AM Friday for a 26hr flight to Saigon, er- Hochiminh City.

Been there before...have seen some stuff on TV and it changed a lot since I was there back in '97.

Was hoping to get a bunch of galleries and freesites made, but I've been busy with other stuff and dealing with all the logistics of the trip.

Hmm. Maybe I can get some stuff done tomorrow. Fact that I'm sick and on lot sof over the counter meds doesn't help.

Hope the porn industy gets along without me ok while I'm gone.

T Pat · 2005-02-23, 08:05 AM

Hey Alphawolf have a safe trip and take lots of pictures
The porn industry won't miss you but GreenGuyand Jim members will

pornrex · 2005-02-23, 08:27 AM

Hey Alphawolf

Have a safe trip

Greenguy · 2005-02-23, 08:36 AM

Have Fun!

pornrex · 2005-02-23, 08:40 AM

Call me naive or just plain silly, but how can you have fun in Vietnam?

Alphawolf · 2005-02-23, 02:20 PM

thanks, guys.

pornrex, Vietnam is pretty well travelled by backpackers these days. It's a coastal country so there are some nice beaches and some pretty cities running north/south along the train line.

Useless · 2005-02-23, 02:55 PM

My cousin, who is half Vietnamese, went to visit his mom's family in VietNam a couple of years ago and loved it. Well, except for the part where a teen prostitute's family mugged him of all of his cash when he was done fucking her. Other than that though, he said it was great.

Enjoy yourself Alpha, and don't bang anyone with siblings bigger than you.
That's my travel tip for today.

pornrex · 2005-02-23, 03:26 PM

Alphawolf...

Just finished an internet search on Vietnam. Sounds and looks awesome. And as UW says, take care of yourself.

SirMoby · 2005-02-23, 03:36 PM

Dude have a great time! I would love to visit Vietnam for a few weeks but now that I'm happily married I don't think that I would enjoy it as much as during my single days

I do have found memories of a lady from Saigon when I was in Singapore though. I always wanted to see how long she could stay on a mechanical bull after our first night together

Alphawolf · 2005-02-23, 04:33 PM

Thanks guys. Can always count on you for pricelsss advice.

Useless · 2005-02-23, 04:49 PM

It just ocurred to me, it's kind of funny to have Americans giving out safe travelling tips when any city in the U.S. is probably more dangerous than most exotic places you could visit.

So I guess that the big mess of land mines and other relics of the war have been cleaned up then.

Alphawolf · 2005-02-26, 08:45 PM

I'm in my hotel in Saigon now. Even the cheap places have free access these days.

Man, I had a fucking horror traveling. I got to Boston Thursday and we flew out Friday. Fucking snow storm. Had to take a different flight from boston to jfk...bit later.

We got there with 30 minutes to spare...no EXIT seats available...of course. So, from JFK->Korea was stuffed in a regular window seat. 15hrs of...pondering. Then the guy and girl next to me start drinking beer and fucking YAPPING for 4hrs straight.

Here's the best part. I had a cold that started 2 days prior to leaving the US.

Also, ever since my root canal 6 mos ago I had something like a small infection.

Some days I felt it a bit, many days I didn't feel anything...but it was till there.

7hrs into the flight it started to get really big and sensitive. OK. No biggie...it would go away eventually.

BZZZZZT.

It started to hurt like a fucker. I'm not one for seeking medical treatment. When I got the blood clot in my lung I sat it out for 2 weeks. But this thing...well, I never came close to fainting before...but did on this wonderful flight. flop sweats...loss of hearing...things started to go dark.

I took some deep breaths and recomposed myself.

Took benedryl, extra strength tylenol, an additional Klonopin and just sat there and suffered.

I didn't want to freak out the girl I'm with, but I just told her I had to get some medical treatment here. Korea airport info told me there's no doctor in the airport...but outside.

We have like NO time. I wish to kill myself.

Info girl called a pharmacy in the airport to ask if they sold antibiotics. They didn't.

I was good and fucked for and 5.5 hr flight.

Found a pharmacy that DID have antibiotics. But was just 100 bottle and they wanted $100. Asked if they could split it into 50.

No. FUCKERS.

And I wasn't sure what that antibiotic was. So, I got some strong ibuprofin. took 2 of those and 2 extra strength tylenol, 2 benedryl, and 2 tylenol cold and flu capsules.

It was better for a while. I think the pressure in the cabin makes it worse.

We land and go through immigration. Had 8 68lb bags I had to load, then off load to security..then load again to go outside. Weeeeeeee.

Met Loan's family....MANY MANY of them. They drove around to a few 24hr International Clinics...which it turns out are NOT 24hrs at all.

We have a large Mercedes tourist van thingie so the whole family is going from hospital to hospital.

Finally, saw a doc...he said I had to see a dentist.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

MOTHER FUCKER.

So, we just go to a pharmacy and Loan and her Brother go in to get antibiotcs...

They took a long while. But came back with some packs of various pills. Loan said that the pharmacist knew exactly what I had...and antibiotics wouldn't help...she got some anyways.

So, I have 3 packets of various pills, tablets, etc...

Plus, a mouthrinse that does some wonders and nearly burns a hole in your cheek...so it must be good.

Hotel I reserved - well, now it was 1AM and too late. He found me a place a few blocks a way. Just 1 room left...a $10/night deal...most basic you can get.

At least it had aircon.

Popped my pills and soem Melatonin to help with jet lag...and fell asleep pretty well at 2AM.

Woke at 6AM. 4hrs is quite good for me on the 1st day with a 12hr difference.

The infection or whatever the fuck it is in my upper gum was pretty hard and the pills seemed to shrink it...at least it wasn't the full length of my gum.

So, I'm hopeful. Still feel like I have a small rock in my upper cheek.

Just had some breakfast of dragon fruit, fried egg, bread, real strawberry jelly...coffee.

Since I haven't ate in 12hrs and was filled with meds that was refreshing. Last night I couldn't even touch my teeth together without causing some major pain.

Actually, now (8:37AM) it feels quite a bit better...so, it looks like we found the right pharmacy. :-)

I'll check out here later and go to the other hotel..which I have no idea where it is having walked here from there last night in a medicated tired stuppor (sp?).

Well, from a nasty snow storm in Boston to mid 90's.

The sounds of motorbikes and beeping fill the area outside...

Looks as if it may rain...so not as hot. May go wonder and take some snapshots...

I know you all wanted to know what I was up to. Now ya know.

You are also a convenient time killer.

Hey maybe in 30 years we can go backpacking in beautiful Ramadi where the highlight will be climbing over blown up pipelines.

pornrex · 2005-02-27, 01:42 PM

Alphawolf,

Man I read your last post and I feel bad for you bud. Are you sure you should have gone on this trip? You sound really rough and DAMN, the descriptiveness of your last post left me feeling very queezy and to an extent, reminded of the time I had my wisdom teeth pulled. Long story but anyways, take care bud. Take good care.

plateman · 2005-02-27, 10:51 PM

man that is rotten luck man, I hope you feel better and get that infection under control and see the right people there that dont kill you with mrong meds..

Alphawolf · 2005-02-27, 11:42 PM

I got the right meds. Needed a certain medicine used for dental infections. I'm almost 100% better as of now.

Have a good one guys.

digifan · 2005-02-28, 12:03 AM

Damn man you should have had that tooth fixed before going for a tour like that.. but you sure know that by now so won't bug ya

I hope this is the proper med. indeed and you are getting better fast. And have fun... but it's something you must take care of fast.. so take care, will you?

digifan · 2005-02-28, 12:07 AM

Oh and don't drink duck blood!

Alphawolf, you could make good money being a tour guide for all the people wanting to go over and see vietnam these days, apparently quite the little tourist spot. I have it on my list of places to go (sort of want to do a trip with Japan, Hong Kong, Shanghai, thialand, and others, a few days each... never seem to have the time anymore.

Hey Digi. I didn't realize it was infected since I got my bargain basement root canal.

Why the fucker prescribed penecillin instead of Flagyl- I have NO idea. I sorta thought it was just a weird thing due to the needle injection in a nerve that sometimes I felt...soemtimes I didn't.

ANYWHOO...Flagly (the generic version) hit the spot. I'm like 95% better and my gum hasn't felt this normal in 6 mos.

But I got 20 250mg pills since the dosoage given was for a Vietnamese sized person...not 215lbs.

I'm all good, babe. Thanks for caring. Maybe one day I can get to Europe and we could visit.

Well, it's packed here now with tourists. Always lots of French here. Not sure why, but when I here their accent I sorta want to pick a fight with them. The guys I mean. The girls are just fine.

Regarding the tour thing. Well, it's a fairly competitive market. However, my "girlfrien'd" brother has a mercedes minivan and now contracts out to Vietnamese tourists. I told him that I could build a very nice website for him and easily get him business if he could learn more English/Japanese/French.

If you do come to VN, let me know and I will help you out. The people I know are good folks.

Gotta go, my dinner arrived. Life is tough.

digifan · 2005-02-28, 07:15 AM

Alphawolf · 2005-03-15, 12:14 PM
