Honeymoon - Day 0: Macau Day Trip

Waking up early this morning, we head to the ferry terminal to take a turbo boat to Macau.  We didn't go to any casinos (we got a quick intro tour of all the casinos), and spent most of the time sightseeing and walking around the city.

For lunch, we ate noodles at a local place, then we headed to the Ruins of St. Paul and the Monte Fort.  The Ruins of St. Paul was pretty cool - given that all that's left is the face of the church.  Going up to the top of Monte Fort was pretty neat too - seeing all the canons still around.  Also walked around the street where all the souvenir purchasing are at.

The best part was the street food! The 牛什 and 雞蛋仔  were simply amazing.  With the 牛什, it was pick your own skewers of beef, then they make it for you on the spot.  With the 雞蛋仔 , it was made with charcoal.  We also went and had some Portuguese egg tarts (since we are in Macau, we must try it!)




After dinner, we went back to where we were spending the night.  Hung out, and then watched the fireworks from a small window from the bedroom (since we did not want to go outside as it was cold and roommate wasn't really feeling well).  Surprisingly romantic because it was just the two of us!

Happy new year 2017!!!
