Into day 4 of my hong kong trip with le family! Had to reread back my dayre to remember what exactly happened that day lolol! Not sure why the whole family couldn't get up to even go for breakfast so my dad being very kind walked to fayuen street to buy us breakfsst! Didn't snap a photo of my breakfast but it was the typical breakfast most locals here will have~ Maggi with luncheon meat, Toast with scramble eggs and milk tea! All for 1 person! And there's something you have to take note here. Every shop has a "rule" that every person sitting in has to buy a meal or a certain value of food or beverage. Weird but that's how hongkong rolls
Glam up with the new whateverrrrr pullover bought at fa yuen street, new nike kicks from citygate and it was to macau here wo go!
In the MTR (Mongkok East) near our hotel (Royal Plaza Hotel) there's this lone standing machine that sells supplements and vitamins!!! FIRST REACTION: WHATTTTTT WHYYYY? Is it even safe to decide what supplements you should intake?!?!? And still till now whenever i see health stuffs i think of tze hahahaha!
A long walk after exiting the MTR to the ferry terminal
Prior researched about the different ferry companies in hong kong that's recommended and Cotai Jet came up more then others. Searched high and low for the place and my dad almost wanted to give up and just buy from another company but luckily we found it! It's not cheap actually to and fro about $60 per pax for the ferry.
Bought starbucks for all 3 of us but we lost track of the time and only had like 3 minutes left to check in and board and we were all rushing and fast walking that we accidently left all our starbucks at the immigration check in zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz but luckily the ferry didn't dissapoint me it's like sitting in first class! Way better then the ferries to batam!! But i counted there's only less then 20 passengers maybe because we went on a weekday
The very comfy seats
I miss the cold wind and weather in hong kong singapore's being a bitch now everyday so hot
Immigration was short and fast at macau just chop and go~ We were given manyyyyyyyyyyyy casinos vouchers and cards etc and were led to shuttle buses which goes to different casinos. Chose the venetian, which is also link to the shoppes and said to be one of the most amazing sites to visit in macau.
Generally macau has lots of grassy plains~ I wonder if the people here are relax and enjoying life and slow everyday
Entering!
Once we got off the bus, we were greeted by many mascots and people dressed like a venice local like want go row boat like that hahahha but once we step in the venetian, i was astounded by it's beauty and architecture. The lights colors prints really made it worthwhile a trip to macau just to see. Entrance is free, you can take photos of the hotel too!
This walkway links straight to the casino and i was not 21 yet at that time so my parents ask me to try my luck see whether can go in see see and experience and surprisingly the guard did not ask me for verification but just to keep the camera hanging on me you can't take photos inside the casino. It was.... weird. The whole place is like a maze the entrances and exits are hidden and i guess it's strategies that make you can't find and continue playing. Saw some which bet like 500 sgd in 1 game of roulette and she lost it all omg then she just casually went to change more tokens
Came out almost immediately couldn't stand the smoke and noise inside but it was an eye opener and we were linked to the grand canal shoppes, macau. This place appeared in an episode of boys over flowers (Korean) and i thought the sky was real wth! Until i saw it with my own eyes!! Probably one of the nicest shopping centres i've visited!
Got a pair of sandals from steve madden and dad got a button top too young for his age which costs like almost $150 sgd. NOT EVEN NICE.
THIS TOP................ NICE MEH!? WALAO 150 SGD
BEAUTIFULLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
Shopped for quite some time inside kok kei bakery, which claims to be the must buy when you're in macau for the portugese tart especially. Bought quite alot of stuffs and i must say the staffs in macau compared to hong kong are generally more rude?
Couldn't even find a toilet in this big mall and every bag shop we pass by my mum wants to buy something from inside lololol. Ended up not buying anything anyway ahhahaha! Got lost in the mall even after asking for directions and blindly walked at least 40 minutes before we found an exit!!!
Cab down to senado square, which is where the Ruins of St Paul is at too~ The whole place and atmosphere feels so foreign and it feels like walking in a mini europe/venice haha! But was turned off by the large mass of PRCs there sorry but no.
3 STOREY SASA
Took some time looking at maps and signages before finally seeing Ruins of St Paul! And if you've wondered why every photo got my dad's back it's because he can't wait for people seriously like everyday every minute very urgently want to go somewhere then walk damn fast and my mum is the always lagging behind lolol
FINALLY SEEING AFTER A LONG WALK! Many tourists and tour groups though
SUPER OVERPRICE AND NOT EVEN NICE TO EAT FISH CAKE... Why did i buy it ugh
haha fail shot of me trying to hold the place up HAHAHAHA
View from the top!
The back
Mum was too tired she did not climb to the top with us! Left our bags in her care and went to explore! Funny ah my mum reach liao almost ending then dont want to climb up lolol
Rest, took photos, feel the atmosphere and it was down back to hong kong we go! Decided to take the longer route out to the taxi stand instead and found some hidden jems
Good place to relax and enjoy a book haha!
Tried to wait for taxi admidst the super long queue where taxi never comes and was told by a local there that bus 3 can take us to the ferry terminal! Delighted for joy together with our hungry stomach the very friendly local uncle brought us to the bus stop which also is the first experience taking bus in hong kong!
Waiting for ferry to come
Back to hong kong ferry terminal and with my super eyes again spotted this cafe called lan fong yuen, which was also recommended by many food bloggers!
The charsiew rice and chicken cutlet ginger noodle never dissapoint me sooooooooo tender and juicy and the noodle was not dry and it was bouncy! Did not snap a photo of the awesome milk tea ugh it was the best i've had in hong kong serioisly!
After a long MTR ride, back to the hotel and the 5 minutes walk never felt so far before and i've never missed the bed as much as today! So drained out! Washed and we enjoyed our freshly baked portugese egg tarts~
YAYYYY FINALLY DONE WITH DAY 4! DAY 5 TOMORROW HAHAAH!
