Macau Trip - Tourism and Egg Tarts

On Sunday Swang and I went to Macau for the Macau Grand Prix at the invite of my friend ネイルアートちゃん....  I took too much video during the race though, its going to take me a while to prepare!   and yes, i still have Hawaii photos left to blog about, but I thought I'd try to get at least some of the Macau stuff in here too...  

So this is all the non-race related stuff i took pictures of!

日曜日スワングさんと僕はマカオのGPへ行った。ネイルアートちゃんも切符くれました。彼女は今マカオに住んでいる。GPのビデオ多い撮った。今準備している、これは僕のほかのマカオ写真です!

Between the races, Swang, ネイルアートちゃん and I walked over to the Casino Lisboa:

Holy Smokes, whats that giant golden thing behind it?! 

前古リスボアカジノです、後ろまだ建っているのゴランドリスボアカジノ。

Its the gigantic new 'Grand Lisboa' Casino. Still under construction!

Obscenely huge!  It's come a long way since I visited last year. すごい!

Since ネイルアートちゃん is living here now, she was the local, so we made her lead. ;-)

Inside the lobby they have had this Qing Bronze Horse head on display... I remember i read about it on Wikipedia... wow, $8.9 mill for that?!

As it was race weekend, they also had a race car on display.  Supposedly they did an hourly 'race queen parade' but we missed it.  doh! :-P

After the final race ended we headed over to the touristy area downtown.  Stephen had never been to Macau before, so we had to give him the big tour: マカオの観光ところも行った:

Post Office and Senado Square on Avenida Almeida Ribeiro.  Not only was it a Sunday, but it was the weekend of the GP, so it was more crowded than I have normally seen...

We made it through the crowds to the Ruins of St. Paul's Cathedral:

ie the single most touristy spot in Macau.

Second most photographed thing in Macau after the Church Facade...

この嫌らし銅像何ですか?とてもHですよ!

Last up, ネイルアートちゃん took us to get the local delicacies at a hidden restaurant:

最後は僕達マカオの特別マカオ料理を探しました!澳門式蛋撻を知っている?

Oh yes, authentic Macanese Egg Tarts.   So delicious I had two! 美味しそう!僕は二つ食べた!

Because of the post race rush on the ferries, we had to wait til 10pm to get on a boat back to HK.  So we took a bus to the new Venetian Casino (not realizing at the time it was in the Cotai Region, far from the ferry terminal).  その後二人はVenitianカジノへ行った。新です、9月始りました。すごい大!全世界2番大ビルです。

god damn this thing is huge!  apparently its the 2nd biggest building in the world!

I didn't take any pics outside, but here's one i got inside:

this was like one of several huge atria inside the building. obscene... and there's like another 10 huge casinos being built nearby right now...  obscene.

we went to an auto show which was like a 15 minute walk down to the exhibition center at the Venetian: カジノ中も車Expoありました:

A Ferrari and a fancy Audi...

I may be headed back to Macau next next week...  i'll try to get better pics if i head down here again.
