hong kong part 6

Even though the title of this post is hk part 6, it is about the time I went to Macau. My mom had planned to go to Macau, a gambling place like Las Vegas, even before we got to Hong Kong. So one day my uncle brought us to get tickets to get there, a ferry ticked and hotel room. When we waited, my brother and i had to wait in the car with Donovan, Melissa, and aunt May. It took my mom and uncle a long time, so we waited and waited and I took a picture of Donovan when he fell asleep. Eventually i went out to go to Okashi Land to buy candy/snacks. My aunt told us why there was so much Philippians across the street in Causeway Bay, it was because they were maids that were on a day off. They came back, we went back home, and ate the delicious banana chocolate candy.

We left for Macau the following day. We left early in the morning, earlier than normal, for the Sheung Wan station for the ferry. The red big ferry boat rocked left and right and that instantly gave me a headache. I tried reading the Old Master Q I bought at the newstand but I failed because of the dizziness. I quit and went to sleep for the hour ride that it takes. Outside the terminal, all i saw outside was all the buses that brought you to the hotel for free. We rode the Rio Bus to our hotel and found out that it was quite fancy. My mom's plan for Macau was that we kept riding these free buses and visit the hotels.

I thought that this place was no way similar to Las Vegas. Macau was a lot stricter on the 18 and younger limit in casinos. I was not even allowed to go in, while in Las Vegas we can go through in order to find parent or go to hotel room. Macau was a lot less lively than Las Vegas, and no arcades for kids. We visited some of the hotels that looked liked for rich people, but some of them I couldn't go in because the front entrance was the hotel. I had bought some almond cookies for my friends as souvenirs. We visited the Macau Fisherman's wharf and a tourist site called Tai Sam Ba. At Tai Sam Ba there was Giordano and Bossini, and my brother bought Gundams at a local store. The day after we arrived at Macau, we had left and was left disappointed.
