For purely mongering I would say ease of travel hands down, though for my "vacations" I prefer to bring my crew (or at least 2-4 of my handpicked pals) and that means a relatively short flight from MIA/FLL. Costa Rica is perfect for that, Sosua is also convenient and the beach is a great feature. Though the casinos there suck. Panama is cool for two nights, I can tell my colleagues I went to the Canal and the casino is nice. Having said that, after a recent business trip to BKK (where 3 of my pals just happened to have business at the same time) I would be remiss to not say I thought it was a splendid locale. But for a straight mongering trip I do not have the time off work to travel around the globe. I would love to hit MDE (which with miles negates the expense and MDE is not hard to get to), but without a grasp of espanol it would not be prudent. Am I going to show up at Pablo's grave for a photo op? Noooo. Just got my visa for Brasil (been a long time since I have been) as I am supposed to be there for work next week, and with one of the miscreants from BKK's adventure (and trip #1 to SJO back in 6/07) it promises to be a hoot. So my vote is ease of travel

, as I frankly do not care about the chick's nationality after many rounds so long as something about her catches my fancy. And there is enough to keep me entertained for the breif time I am there. Last Monday at Scarlett's I initially thought the girl was asian (I had been drinking excessively), turns out she was from Santa Domingo.

Good time, would have been better at the Cheetah.

Or especially La Passions
