Trip in China: @ Hong Kong - The Peak

On 25th Oct 2008, we made a half day trip to The Peak, a higher part of Hong Kong by peak tram. We met many celebrities there so we had to take out our time for them since they were begging us to take pictures with them. No la, just kidding. We visited Madame Tussauds Hong Kong! I used to love Hong Kong movie stars! I used to be crazy for them! And, that was the only time I could take pictures with them although they are in the form of wax. It still gave me a lil bit of stingy sensation when I was standing beside them, by the way. :)


Then, we made hand-wax our selves. We were holding hands and they made the wax of our hands! It was a romantic-childish experience but I love it.


At last, we walked around there to see Hong Kong city view from the peak. The weather was so nice. The view was also quite nice although it was foggy.

Trip in China: @ Macau

On September 2008, we decided to leave Japan and move to Hong Kong for good. Visiting China has been my dream since I was younger. I love the history of China and now God gives us the opportunity to stay in Hong Kong to explore China. We arrived in Hong Kong on October 2, 2008. The first trip that we made (on October 5) since we arrived in Hong Kong was going to Macau! We took 1 hour trip by ferry from Hong Kong to Macau. Macau is a very unique place, the mixture between Chinese and Western cultures. We went to Senado square and the places around it, like St. Paul Ruins, and some other churches.


In the evening, we visited one of the new hotels casino in Macau, called The Venetian Macao Resort Hotel on Taipa island, another part of Macau.
This hotel is the best that I could ever imagined! It has european majestic look. Can you see the brochure that I was holding from the picture? That's the picture of the hotel from outside. Isn't it so gorgeous?
