Macau, China





Macau has boomed and grown exponentially since I have last seen it over 10 years ago. Largely driven by the Chinese genetic gene for gambling, the casinos were all a bit too overwhelming. Thankfully there were still the nice old streets of Macau to escape the "hurking" and passive smoking of the casinos. We did tick off all the things to do in Macau, (1) Gamble (2) Have a portuguese tart - Very Yum (3) Have Portuguese Chicken (4) Have Almond Biscuits (5) Have Beef Jerky and lastly (6) Take a picture of the burnt down church of St Pauls. Very low probability that we will be back, but the Portuguese tart may sway me.
