We boarded ferry from Hong Kong HK-Macau Ferry Terminal. Upon reaching, you may board bus. no 3 or 3A to
travel to city area. Alternatively, mark down the places you would like
to go and take free shuttle buses to the hotel nearest to your
destination. Most hotels provide free shuttle services as they wanted to
attract more visitors to their casinos. We took shuttle bus to
Grand Lisboa Hotel / Casino, and walked for ten minutes before reaching
Senado Square. Follow the signs to St. Paul's Ruins, the most famous
attraction in Macau.
Locals in Macau do not understand English, and could not direct us to Macau's food street - Rua da Felicidade. They only speak Cantonese. The maps I downloaded online were somewhat different, when we were walking by those buildings in the city. We managed to find Cheung Kei after a while. A must have when you are in Macau especially their prawn roe noodles. Noodles are surprisingly springy which goes well with a bottle of coca-cola during the hot weather.

Macau is most well known for its casinos, everywhere you go there is one. Fai went to try out his luck, but it was not his day. We pampered ourselves with Yee Shun's famous "Shuang Pi Nai" (double layered milk). You may try it if you love milky desserts.

Fai decided to try out bungee jumping (costs about SGD 500) at Macau Tower. We boarded bus 9A at bus terminal just opposite of Grand Lisboa Hotel. There was nothing much to see except for bungee jump, and sky walk.

We wanted to try some authentic Portugese cuisine, and tried Vila Latina. They served superb pork ribs, and curry chicken was not too spicy.

Do not leave Macau without buying their famous Koi Kei's almond biscuits. Choose the one with pork floss. They have branches located almost everywhere, just like your convenience store.
