First ferry Central
Ferry from Hong Kong airport
For the first class, a simple meal will be provided and the seats will be more spacious.
For people, who want a Sim card. There are vending machines selling Sim at the ferry terminal at MAcau.
There are also buses which you can take to Casino of your choice for free. There are buses linking each casino and sometimes to places of interest. Check with the staff at the casino. I took the public bus around at times.
I visited Venetian Macao, it supposed to be the largest in the world with a canal.

Minimum bet for jackpot starts from hk$0.05. No worries for, people who are not risk taking and just want to pull the jackpot machines.
Just insert you dollar notes, when you tired of the machine or out of luck, just collect your money and move on to the next one. You can redeem the money at those big machines that look like ATM.
Ruins of St. Paul's Cathedral
Please go there with an empty stomach. Lots of samples for you to try. Try before buying.
But for Buddhists, ask before you try the bak kwa as it may be beef bak kwa.
They are even piping hot seaweed egg rolls to try out.
Try the Portuguese egg tarts too.
Avoid the pork bun which the stall has a tv showing some idol dramas and idols visiting the stall. The pork is hard and bland. Definitely not recommended.
hong Kong : Ap Liu street 鴨寮
Step out to Ap Liu street and you will find stalls selling handphone cases and screen protector. I am not sure about the quality but the price and variety seems good.
We went up the 北河街市政大廈, it was a wet market.
You see live chickens, vegetables and fruits.
If you are not into this, just walk at ground level.
There are almost no shopping for clothes and shoes here.
Good for Buying fruits, vegetables, pastries and dried goods.
Trying to understand the cantonese.
Dried Starfish for sale.
Lots of dried goods for sale.
Dried oyster, mushrooms, fish, cuttlefish, sea cucumber, ikan bilis and a lot more.
Quite amazed at their collection of dried goods.
their dried shrimps have small, medium, large.
As big the prawn we see in the wanton in Hong Kong. (bottom right photo)
They even have dried duck wings. (middle right photo)
Lot of bakeries.
My parents bought the wife's biscuit from here and I enjoyed my mango desserts
Garang Guni?
SEcond hand market.
