HONG KONG

On the way back from Australia, I stopped by in Hong Kong to see the family. It's always been like another home to me even though I had never lived there. I've been countless times, but the more I go, the more I realise how beautiful it is.

MACAU

A day in Macau:
So setting off early in the morning from TST in Hong Kong, we ferry across to Macau where we are greeted by many many casino minibuses. Hop on them for free and they take you their casino. Most are in Taipa, and are quite close to others also. 
Hotel Venetian was our first stop, a large hotel, casino and shopping complex which models after Venice. A must see!









Next stop, to see the Portuguese side of Macau. 



Ruins of St Pauls and Monte Forte






Back to Grand Lisboa Hotel where we hopped back onto a minibus to the Ferry port!


Honestly, I had been to Macau a few times before, but had never seen the Portuguese side of it. I'd seen the casinos and even the Macau tower, but it's always nice to see the historical parts of a city. I also would have loved to have tried some of their speciality foods! Maybe next time I might stay the night and really explore!
