Just got back from DS - which me and my LT dubbed as "The Sauna Town".

I believe there is no direct bus from either GZO or SZ airport to DS, but there is direct bus from GZO to HZ. After reaching HZ, then you can get to DS. However, I usually travel through HKG then into Lowu. The Lowu bus station will have frequent buses to either HZ or DS.

We venture back to some of the tested joints, still as good as ever, probably because this particular joint is slightly out of the way, a good 10-15mins drive out of the DS city center, therefore the management has kept a certain level of standard in order to continue to attract return customers like me and LT.

This time round, I picked a girl from Xinjiang, a Han-Uyghur mix, and LT picked a sweet petite looking gal, who turned out to be a gem. Boy was it an intense session.

In DS, it is estimated that there are about 300 suanas in operation. LT and I speculate, however Bro SBX seems to confirm, that the building authorities will not approve the permit to the construction of a hotel if they do not include a sauna section. Almost all the hotels, whether big or small has a sauna in operation.

The lowest priced ones are like 138 - 188, usually for 70mins, basically a 1 pop deal. The standard ones are like with different category ranging from 300 (Normal) - 400/500(Model). There are 600 above category, which I have never tried in DS. Usually it will be a 120min session.

In DS, the (used to be) in thing was the "Flying In The Air" style, motorised bed, and also the 50+ steps ISO procedure. Usually, for me, I just tell the girl to skip all those and get to the real action.

As for KTV, you can't compare to the KTVs in Dongguan, KTVs in DS used to be like 1-4-7 even for the more reputed joints like New Regent. I kinda like that and most of the time, the gals that I picked were ok. But the thing to look out for is that, in DS, not all the KTV gals will go out. Therefore, it is wise to ask the mummy. But with the influence from the ever increasingly popular tourist spot like Dongguan, Changping, the KTV rates in DS has gone up too.

For this trip, me and LT went to check out a "new" joint - if I recall correctly, is at Fu Kang building. By the way, KTV in DS don't start at 6pm like CP. They usually start around 8pm, and some of the gals show up at 8:30-9:00pm.

We arrived at 7:30pm, and the gals start trickling in. Basically, there are 2 categories, the 2-5-8 and the 3-6-9. The 3-6-9 category, if you ask me, are marginally or may even just be on par with the 2-5-8 cat, however, I later understand from the gal that I picked that, the 3-6-9 cat has more rules to follow, such as, they must go out should the customer request. They too have room sales quotas whereas the 2-5-8 category do not have those binding rules.

I picked a gal after a few rounds of parade. LT requested for 1 of the gals from the previous line up but seems like the mummy was not able to locate the gal after she left the room, so LT picked another gal.

We didn't book a room so to speak, instead, we booked ourselves a small table at the main hall where they have performance which starts at 10pm. So we had drinks and played dice until the performance starts. The tabs comes up to about less than 200 I believe, for about 18 bottles of beer and 3 plates of tibits. I kinda enjoyed the night and the company of the 2 gals, although the let down was that LT's gal didn't want to go out.

Other note worthy things are like - the foot massage is rather reasonable. About 25 for 1 hour. Hakka food is the specialty of this town and they even have great dim sum at 12midnite where it is really packed during the weekends.

Well, that kinda sums it all up for my trip.
