City of Dreams Macau March2014

 It took us one hour by ferry from Hong Kong China Ferry Terminal to Macau

 I was excited as this is my first visit to Macau.

Another main reason why we wanted to come to Macau was to see the show.

"House of Dancing Water"

Spectacular water circus production show that costs 200 Million dollar!

 Long bridge connects old casino and new casino area

This was the ferry we took from Hong Kong

Times Square Causeway Bay, Hong Kong March2014

We took a ferry from Tsim Sha Tsui to Wan Chai, Hong Kong Island.

It was more than half an hour walk for us 

from Wan Chai to Causeway Bay.

It looked about 10 minuets walk on the map.

 We have been always lucky with food, here...hh

 Times Square Hong Kong

 Times Square Causeway Bay probably is the most expensive property in Hong Kong

 Serenade Chinese restaurant at Hong Kong Cultural Centre Tsim Sha Tsui for Yum Cha

                        Having Yum Cha lunch with Billy on our second day in Hong Kong

 The Langham hotel Tsim Sha Tsui lobby where we stayed.

So close to the cruise terminal.

Nong ping village Lantau Island, Hong Kong March2014

We have three days in Hong Kong before our cruise started.

Been here so many times and decided to go somewhere we have not been before.

It is Nong Ping village in Lantau Island.

 The line for the cable car was quite long.

 Glass bottom cable car was bit more of $ but everyone inside liked it.

 Big Buddha on top of the hill

 Plenty of souvenir shops and eateries around.

 Huh huh huh

Buddha is on my palm...

 We did not have to prove ourselves to climb up these couple of hundreds steps...to pay our respect to the big Buddha?

Hot and sour spicy soup and Taiwanese style dumplings were quite delicious and authentic.

Just perfect for late lunch.
