Memorable Macau Macau was full of great sights in particular I loved the Portugese architecture. I spent a hasty afternoon in Taipa, great food and just simply walking the cobblestoned streets was magic. My return trip on the ferry to Hong Kong was a memorable one. Leaving Macau just as a category 3 cyclone warning was issued, the crossing of the Sth. China Sea became a little more interesting when an internal exit door of the ferry opened slightly to allow enough water into the ferry for me to think we may have to break out the life rafts.
I later discovered that the ferry company was not one that come highly recommended!!

Phillipines Hi Katie,

Chinese New Year! Hey Katie - I received a gift for Chinese New Year too! One of the Chinese girls in the lab gave me a bag of chocolate gold coins! I like your gift better!! I love all your pictures - almost makes me feel like I'm there with you. Take care and keep writing. Love, A. Mary
Buddha and Wisdom Garden Hey Katie,
Walking for 2.5 hours to see Buddha sounds like a great adventure - only next time wear your sturdy shoes! I'll bet he was awesome up close and personal. Do you feel much wiser now that you toured "Wisdom Garden"? I'll bet you do! Continue to see all you can on this great adventure. The stories will make great memories! I love you and look forward to reading your next blog entry! Love, A. Mary
Beautiful!!! Since I've visited China, I've not left and I hope to visit Macau soon; I guess I could go by train.
Macau is beautiful; that Casino looks like a temple on a lake right? I've seen similar temples like that here, there's one that stands on a mountain.
Have you traveled to China before? Its also beautiful, I'm sure it shares some similarities with Macau..
