Macau/GuangZhou 5D4N trip - Day1

I went for a family trip last week, too lazy to organize the picture... sorry for the long wait.. here comes the very first post about the trip.... To make it more easy reading, I had decided to blog about this trip base on a day by day basis...

So.. Day1... we reached Macau... and spent our day there.... Really nth very interesting in Macau I could say.... only casino.. casino and casino..

The very first attraction we went... the golden lotus.. lotus is city flower of Macau.... look kinda similar to the one in Hong Kong... gifted by the China government to Macau...

We were then brought to a shop which sell famous local biscuits.. kinda similar with HongKong too.. maybe only the size is different.. I was surprise that we were not brought to the more famous shop like 咀香园 or 鉅记 but to this 澳门老饼家. What made me more surprise is like... the price... I was later found out that the more famous shops selling the same thing at a much lower price...say.. HKD10 difference for a same packet of pork floss wafer...

Nevermind that since i din buy any... and now its lunch time.... food are nice...
after lunch.. we went to the most famous historial spot... 大三芭... its a piece of wall left over from war... this piece of wall is actually the landmark of Macau... We had to walk few minutes to reach there is no place for a bus to park.. and the road is too small...
and while walking...I spot this car... which full of soft toys.. hahaha....

Finally I reached...the wall...
Shophouses nearby... as I am following tour.. too bad the tour guide never allow us to have a walk there... if you are going free and easy... you can never miss this place...

We then went to The Venetian... one of the famous casino in Macau... there is a hotel.. a shopping complex.. beside the casino... the shopping place is designed as the Venetian... Maybe First World Genting is a smaller version of this? haha... but this is far more beutiful...

The river... the boat ride is expensive.. HKD250 per person if I remember correctly...

The performances....


and if you are there.. not to forget to pay a visit to the washrooms...
The very grand casino...too bad we are not allowed to take picture in casino... as usual... the casino is very spacious... not "smoky" like Genting too....

and now... time to sleep....
to be continued...
