It is so excited to have all this brothers travel together to fight in the dragon boat competition.
In took 3 hours+ flight to Macau. A bit hungry tim! took out my crackers:
It expand like wanna blow up. nothing special, just the air pressure different from ground make the cracker look chabby. :-)
Finally arrived Macau International Airport waiting for the guy who assigned to guide us during our stay in Macau. (actually, we expecting some girl tour guide….hehehe)
Transfer to Pousada Marina Hotel. We going to stay here for 4 Days. It located at Taipa, Macau. After checked in, We go to Vila Da Taipa to have our dinner. This places have a lots of choices for food
We decided to dine in this Restaurant called Cafe E.S.Kimo. Actually not all of us, some go to have seafood steamboat eat all you can at MOP 90
I ordered myself a pork bun which famous in Macau.
either we all hungry already or this pork bun really delicious~~! the meat is so tender combine with the soft bun, great!
Besides that pork bun, I get another set of meal. it also pork. this one also fabulous. Don’t you think so?
look again! (my saliva is generating while look at the picture itself) the drink is watermelon milk tea. After dinner, we walk around this places:
No People around, this place seem haunted and spooky! Taipa is place quite silent. not much people at night (may be hide inside the casino) compare to Macau. (check out google map if you donno where is Taipa and where is Macau) Some guys went back to Hotel after hanging around. Me and Chee Boon attracted to the night view of this building. So, we decided to walk there
Look so near, right? it is camera zoom at 7.8x. it is quite far away. it like have to walk 30 minute to this place from Vila Da Taipa. Anyway, it worth the walk!
It is so beautiful. the weather is windy and you’re like in Portugal with the music on the street
Each Lamp post have speaker to play those classical music around Venetian Hotel.
Opposite of Venetian Hotel is Crown Hotel, Hyatt Hotel and wuuhuu~~~ hard rock hotel. I have a mission to get some goodies in Hard Rock Cafe for some real hard rock fans. But too bad, the soft launch of hard rock cafe only have room to stay. No hard rock t-shirt to sell until the grand opening on 1st of June. By the time, we already back to Penang….syik!
Inside Venetian Hotel….wtf! it is so classic and yet so elegant. straight to the end of the walkway is the casino. Sorry, no camera inside casino.
The casino is very big here. uncounted tables got Poker, Caribbean Poker, Blackjack, Roulette, Big Small apa macam type eh gamble pun ada. However, the slot machines is not much compare to Genting Casino. The drink is free, you can play the card, you can play the machine as long as you bring enough money to play.
Just hang around the casino then walk back to Hotel and call it off for day 1 in Macau trip….!
