Brett had already been to Macau about a year and a half ago and he was excited to bring me back here and show me the sights. It was a Portuguese colony in the past but it seems like nobody really speaks Portuguese here anymore. Although you can see the Portuguese influence because all the signs are in Portuguese, English and Chinese. We checked into the hotel and then found dinner at a little Portuguese restaurant. We then went to the old part of town to see some of the sights. We saw the old church and the fort and the old Portuguese archetechture. It was neat to see all this, Brett wanted to take me down to the new part of town it’s like the Las Vegas strip but I was so tired so we headed back to the hotel.
Friday we walked around the new area of town it is very much like Las Vegas. They have the MGM Grand and some big fancy hotels and casinos. They have a mount Vesuvius volcano like the one in Italy, we saw the real one, but I guess it erupts at night and it’s pretty cool. There is a replica of the coliseum in Rome and a replica of the Forbidden City in China, it was neat to see and it was all overlooking the ocean. We walked through some of the shops where they have different architecture to look like different places around the world. We ate at the most interesting one called Africana. Brett really enjoys trying new foods. After lunch we checked out of the hotel and went to the port to take a boat to Hong Kong, the boat ride was a little over 1 hour.
