macau, day 1- part 3

okok.. only have 10 more minutes before i have to leave home for teluk intan...let me just post this first...

so we visited most of the big hotels on the main island on the same night. we din even bother bathing before going out. just put the things in the room, wash our faces then out again.

the lights here are really better than those in hk...

the lisboa at night.

ok, so what is a visit to the casino without a little gambling?? we only donated our money to the slot machines...and sure no win. lose $100...so less than rm50. enuf. the slot machines here do not drop coins when you want to stop playing. instead they print out this cash ticket. how convenient. then you just bring the ticket to cash out at the cashier. hehe....of course we din cash ours lah. bring home as souvenir. yee actually won a little and then she lose again...just a little. we tried 3 different machines at 3 different casinos.

the grand lisboa. the changing light facades are multiple.


the sands...did you read in the paper that the american company is planning to sell it to a chinese one? the casino in sands is the most impressive. with very very high ceiling which goes a few level up. too bad, business is not as brisk. and most casinos here have stage for performances...singing and dancing. very entertaining indeed. when i was in sands, the band was performing queens' song.

macau's fisherman wharf. a group of restaurants and shops along a street in an enclosed area opposite the sands. there is a casino here as well, i have forgotten the name.

are they really responsible? you can get the brochure from the casino. oh, of course they have it in chinese as well.

mgm grand....oh we have to walk sooo far to go there...

near the lobby area. very beautiful, the projector does the work really well here.

this if i still remember correctly is inside whynn? or is it mgm? this area is caller rotunda. the globe like golden feature will open to reveal a dragon. the show is every 30-minute alternating with prosperity tree show which comes out from the ceiling. the photo on the top right is the ceiling.

inside grand lisboa. notice the familiar bronze head of the horse.
ok..time's up. will update the last day's event when i am free in teluk intan. wi-fiing in mcd??
have a good week
