Susan has been wanting to go to Macau (former Portuguese Colony attached to mainland China) ever since we came but it was looking like it wouldn't happen before we left. It finally came about as the other missionary couples encouraged her to just go (even though it ended up being on the coldest day of the year thus far). We traveled by turbo jet ferry for an hour to arrive there.
We visited several hotels but most of the pictures here (upper left and right) are from the Venetian including the canal on the third floor (upper left center) which actually sported gondola rides and the lantern festival (lower left). The huge ivory carving (lower left center) and gold plated carving (top center) were in the Grand Lisboa (lower right) which had an amazing architectural structure.
We enjoyed a scrumptuous buffet lunch at the Star World Hotel and saw the famous Ruins of St. Paul's (center and bottom center) and the Macau Fortress (lower left center) as well as walked through the traditionally Portuguese style city streets (right center).
