Up at 9 and todays plan was to go to Macau, get to mainland china and see if the portugeese influence could still be seen.

Trip only takes an hour on the fast catamaran. Macau definately has a different feeling to it when compared to HK. Of course loads of casinos, but also colonial portugeese architecture. Totally different scale in some parts, more human+layed back.

… and some portugeese snacks, bifana and whatever these little tards are called …

Inbetween we came across an old mandarin house, very impressive architecture.

Walking down the streets towards the casinos and restaurants, I came across this peculiar tshirt

We checked out some of the casinos, small Las Vegas, actually not too kitsch though.

Back at the hostel, we were just in time for a small bday party – might get late yet again, what happened to my plan to get to bed early today …

Almost forgot, booked my plane to Cambodia for friday – seeing lutz, do some offroad biking and perhaps get some sleep?
