After Johan arrived Bangkok, we would like to go travel somewhere together. Our plan was to go to Chiangmai - Pai and/or Chiangrai. Since I really love traveling by train so I offered to go to Chaingmai by train.. but after checking weather news, weather seems to be bad during this time. Warning of storm, heavy rain, mud slide including 3 schools closed has changed our mind. Discussed with Johan and came across with Macau where we rushed through for one day in our 2004 trip. Because of culture mix, beautiful tall building view so we decided to go there again.

Macau - The colorful city of casino.. Chinese characters.. Protugese language.. Chinese temple... Cathedral.. Church.. cultural mix is what we found here..

First arrive at airport, got the hotel by misunderstanding where it's located but still fun. Macau is easy to travel around with bus or walk. We stayed at Fu Hua Guangdong Hotel on Avenida de Horta e costa, well the name of the road is so difficult to remember better to keep map with me all the time lucky our hotel is near roundabout so I can spot it a bit easier. Walking around on the first day I found a delicious noodle shop mm.. must be a good sign.. walking in Macau is not bad as I thought, from Senado Square to Lisboa casino was not the bad idea, not so tired plus can take pictures along the way..

**Special thanks for Johan's photos**
