We get up at 9am and I’m feeling a bit ruff….too many ciders mixing in with lager….ugh. The fecking handbag tout dudes start hassling as soon as we’re outside so I just yell ‘NO’ at one of them….dont mess with hungover Hayley…..but hey, what solves that?! Maccie d’s – yay!!! £2 for a big breakfast kinda thing – sorts us all right out. We have a laff about Dave’s exploits with the Nigerian’s last nite and head to the ferry terminal to find out cost of going to Macau. Ends up being £29 return – which is a bit steep for an 1hr ferry ride, but hey, we wanna go and the pushy travel agents get our tickets and we run for the ferry at 11.30am.
It’s a pretty nice ferry and feels like you’re in a plane!! The Fanimal comes out to play again and gets his pic on the way to Macau. We get there after an hour and we have to go through immigration as apparently its over foreign waters or summat…..interesting eh!? There are a load of casino buses outside which are FREE!!! Whooohooo – we get on the MGM one and get dropped off at this ENORMOUS MGM hotel / casino – wowzers! This is just like Las Vegas – seriously!! Mental!! We manage to get $100 HK onto a gambling card, by showing our ferry ticket, and away we go to the slot machines – teehee!! I have no idea what I’m doing and am just pressing buttons for the sake of it! I end up coming away with about £6 – just from the 20c machines! Haha
We have a good ol wander through Macau and its so European – like a holiday town when you go abroad to Spain or….Portugal…..funny thing is, Macau was owned by Portugal – so there are signs up in Chinese AND Portuguese AND English – crazy!!! We see the old town, a nice garden and head through the touristy bit. Have an awesome lunch at a local Macau restaurant – Beef Satay – yum! And we head to Wynn’s casino – this place has a mini fountain version of the bellagio – wicked!! Aaron wins a £10 in there and we’re all thinking – time to go – before we break the bank and spend everything on gambling!
Ferry leaves at 7 and we all snooze on the way back. Pick up some instant noodles at the 7Eleven and away to bed…China tomoz – eeeeeeek!!!
