3rd day One day Macau Trip – 24 April 2006

We did asked the info regarding for this one day trip, luckily the hotel have this arrangement but the tour guard will introducing in English. We got no choice as we don’t want to waste money to search around.

Went downstairs then we found the trip was starting at 9:30am, we paid for MOP$200.00 each. The hotel arrange us to went with the free bus to HK-Macau ferry, then they will someone to find us there. The travel agent quickly found us, and brought us to join the group, then we found 95% of our group was European.

We started our journey at around 10:00am.

The first thing to visit was the Golden Lotus which created when Macau was went back to China. Lotus is Macau represent flower.

Second place to visit is the MUST visit tourist place, the Dai Shan Ba, only left a front side of a very old church. Crowded people. I ate the famous “egg ta” cost MOP$7.00 each, quite expensive, as it cost about B$1.50 each.

The tour guide point us the small temple locate at the right side of the Dai Shan Ba. We visit the very small Jesus related museum and the bone placed museum. I forgot what these bone belong to.

I shoot several photos in different direct, side, up and down. Some view is quite nice.
Eng try to buy some gift which can represent Macau, the key chance is the best thing to buy. 4 key chance cost MOP35.00 and Eng only paid MOP30.00.

Time up, then we found we were the last two person to enter the bus. Oh, yes, the whole group have 29 people. Asian people only Eng and me and a Philippines family with kids.

After this trip, it was lunch time, buffet which included on this trip. What a surprise to us. Good buffet which have eastern and western good. We also have the special dish which can select fish or pork. Very good meal and it really full, too full.

The compassion Buddha- Guang Yin was the next destination. Hot sunny day.

There were several people left us when we arrived the very old Maco temple, only left 9~10 of us. We visited the fishing related museum which requited ticket, also included on this trip. The Maco temple. As it was too hot, Eng don’t want to climb up there, I just went up there to took some photos. The top small temple is GuangYin temple, very small. I took the photo and went down.

Watching the tourists buy gifts, quite impolite. When lower down the price then the shop owner said he don’t want to sell, so proud!

Macau Tower was the next visit place. Very good place to visit, not so many people, there was a interesting part was you can step of the glass which you can view outside. Got what I mean, never mind, I got the photo to show you. This floor is at 58 floor, then we use the left to went up to 61 floor, the top floor which you can do the jumps and sky walk. You have to paid for the jump and walk. You can walk from outside of the tower, there is a path for you to walk, sure that you have the safety wear on your shoulder.

To be continue…
