Where are the macanese?

The Chinese New Year has passed a week ago. I realised the welcoming to the Year of the Tiger 2010 was a ROAR! I had fun throughout the week. Happy Chinese New Year All! Went to Macau, what I call the gamblers' paradise. Macau was a Portugese colony and both the first and last European one in China. There's not much site-seeing there. You can visit all its attractions in a day! At almost every corner of the city you find casinos. And every casino has its own hotel! There weren't many people in the streets. The guess was everyone were inside the casinos. Of course, I am not old enough to enter one. The hotels there were huge and everyday they have magnificent performances mainly to attract more casino customers. Tried the mouth-watering Portugese egg tarts and some local snack which was pork sandwiched between two burger buns. I also saw the Guinness World Record holder for card-stacking, Bryan Berg (bet you never heard of him). He was making a model of The Venetian Macau in the hotel with freestanding playing cards. No glue, tapes or tricks; that's what they said. Came back and it was school exam period...


Jenga all the way! during CNY
