This is exactly what it was like! Not to mention that the level of comfort and maybe even confidence had risen drastically between Day 1 and Day 3 of the mountains. I no longer felt completely out of my element. I dont even think I hesitated when I walked into that strip joint it was only until after when writing my report that I realized there was a large crowd of guys by the entrance just hanging out. It also doesnt hurt that I'm with 3 males and not necessarily entering on my own.
Sounds like you really get in there too and don't let arriving solo hinder you from having a great time! Kudos!!
