Day 2 in HK .. erm .. shld be in Macau ... =)

Day 2 is a full day in Macau. Took a tram to the ferry terminal. As usual, we were busy taking photos before proceeding in to buy ferry tickets. Our ferry ticket, the ferry we took is called Turbo Jet, quite comfy, air conditioned and cushioned seats. Its bout 1+ hour ride, just nice for sleeping .. haha .. A group photo before departing hk for macau: Some photos onboard: Arrived at Macau: After lotsa discussion, we finally settled on a tour van. As our group is too big, we've gotta split into 2 vans. Our stop no.1, Macau Tower. Though this is not the first time i've been to macau, its the 1st time I visit the tower. Didnt have enough time to visit, so quite glad had a chance this time. Its super windy up there. There is this Bungy Jump activity up there, which cost i think around SGD200 or more ... can't remember exactly, but well, we're all on quite a budget trip, so no one tried, or no one got the 勇气 to try ... hehehe .. There is this interesting sentence: A group photo before leaving the top viewing level: Few levels down, there is this interesting area where its its just glass that we're stepping on. The first step on the glass, i've got this little shaky feel, but was okay seconds later. Glad that my height phobia wasnt that bad. Macau tower made of Lego: Next destination is a church, and from there, we had a very nice view of the macau tower. And this is the church Some group photos around the area: Next we proceed to a street where we had some free time to buy our lunch. We bought 猪扒包 and portugese eggtart. The bun was soh soh only, i really miss the 1 that I ate the year b4 when i was in macau. But the eggtart was super nice! hot from the oven, yum yum!! After lunch, we proceed to the famous church wall, its previously a church, and heard that after a big fire, only tat piece of wall is left, and its now 1 of macau's tourist attraction. And there, we met this group of cute primary school kids doing survey there. They're really cute! The street there sells yummy almond cookies and some other snacks. After this stop, every1 really 大包小包, and we had to carry them around when we were in Venettian. This is the shop that most of us bought our cookies. And yes, we finally end our van tour and reached Venettian, the new casino/hotel. There inside, you really won't know what the time, cos the lighting inside let you feel that the time never move, the sky is always blue. And we really see those people rowing the gondola and sing. We even end up taking photos in the toilet .. lol .. And here, is my dinner at Venettian food court. I ate spicy tofu soup, its really spicy and hot, and quite nice in a cold weather. Last photo in Venettian, found this place to take photo very last min, this is the casino ceiling.. Before leaving macau, I brought every1 to a place with roman buildings .. its quite a nice place to take photo, but wind there was really quite strong .. Thats our day in macau, tats the time tat i really felt cold n really shiver. Think tats because of low immune system when slping on the ferry during the 1+ hour ride back to hk. I really cant stop shivering even when crossing the custom. My shiver stop finally after getting a warm vitasoy from 7-11. Think i shiver oso because the weather had start to turn much colder. Taking cab back to hotel mark the end of day 2 in hk ...

GOOD NIGHT AND DREAMS DORO! BUT '

Do not enclose the dream
Inside a box
To pull out when you go
Slowly because
It will stifle
And soon svanirà ...

Free to let it fly,
Left drag
And not resistance,
Imbued with dream
Everywhere,
At any time ...

Become TU dream
And the dream will become TE!
And 'only in that way
It becomes reality.
A hug to all of your dreams .... Free to fly in this space !!!!!!
