Macau – NoaAyal hits the casinos!

June 2, 2008

Our 2nd visit to Hong Kong only focused on one thing.. buying a laptop! and of course some jewish studies with our friendly hosts..
from there we quickly moved on by fairey to Macau.
Macau was a Portuguese colony until only about 10 years ago when the Chinese and the Portuguese came to some agreement in which Macau was returned to China. Their is still a heavy Portuguese influence in Macau – most of the locals speak Portuguese and loved speaking Spanish with Ayal which apparently looks spanish. The streets signs are all in Portuguese a little Chinese and maybe English.

Macau is China’s Las Vegas! with over 20 casinos on this small island it’s really hard to avoid going into one, or 2, or maybe even 5 !!
Most of the hotels/casinos weren’t as fancy as Las Vegas, BUT, Macau has its own MGM, Sands and Venetian (the exact replica of the one in Vegas). These are the 3 casnios we decided to donate some pocket money to (as they are all owned by jews!).. thank god we only had 24 hours in Macau before our flight to Thailand other wise we might have had to shorten our trip
