Hong Kong Trip -----> Day 5

OK day 5 is where me, my mom and dad went to Macau for a day trip to look see look see... lazy to type so much, so enjoy the pics loh...
Mom and dad in the ferry to cross to Macau from Kowloon... behind my dad got 1 guy rite... I'll be sitting beside him.. and he seems QUITE leng chai... :-p

Found this building special.... a BIT like KLCC... :-p

This is the popular Macau St. Paul's church.... actually the building collapsed but surprisingly only this front wall did not collapsed... so thats why its popular... i guess....

From afar look of the church.... this wall veli tall...


Me and my mom in front of da church...
A more clearer look of da wall...
A very close up view.. there's some statue of some1... i dunno who... i guess 1 of it is St. Paul..
The back view of da church's front wall...
The left side view...

And this is the right side view....
This is supposed to be the inside of the church... where this is supposed to be a "stage" for the priest (i dunno wat its called) for preaching... if not mistaken.. so once it collapsed, the remains left like this... I heard that there's victims died at this spot... but of course they already removed the victims..
Then there's nothing much to see... so we cabut loh... OH!! At the side of this church got sell a lot of Almond biscuits... it's very popular!! and we bought a lot as a "souvenir"!!
This is Senado's Square where you can shop, and it's very very near the church... and see me and my mom holding the plastic bags?? We bought the Egg Rolls and Almond Biscuits!!
Next stop we went to Kuan Yin Statue... something to do with Macau feng shui.. and we carried that heavy bag along... >.< Then this is the view around the Kuan Yin statue... the bridge that connects Macau city and the ferry station...
This is the quite new Macau Tower..
This is the inside of the Kuan Yin statue... from here it's a ermm... a shape where u can see the floor below...
On the way to the next floor where at the sides it describes how this statue is being built..
They built this at China..... dunno which part liao... :-p


Then when i reach the below floor... i stand at the same spot when I'm at the floor above to take pic... whoever wear skirts and stand here we'll have a veli "nice" view... :-p
This is the glass small Kuan Yin statue where they get the inspiration from... meaning they look at this glass Kuan Yin, they go and "enlarge" it... :-D
From left: Da woman who do all the "analysis", design, development, testing and implementation; da monk who look at the feng shui to see which part of macau the Kuan Yin should be located at; da Macau governor (i think), who agree with this "project".
Then we walk from the Kuan Yin Statue to Golden Buhimia Square (Yes HK also got 1 and it seems Macau also want 1). Imagine I have to walk from KLCC to Low Yatt.. it's SUPER FAR!!! It took us 40 minutes (well the minus 10min where we sit at a taman) to get to that square... Then while sitting at the taman, I saw that their World Trade Center is very nice.. especially the word "WTC"... all in glass!!
After the square, we head to F1 museum!! Like the museum being called, it's showing all the past F1 cars and the history drivers and etc...
Me taking pic with Michael Schumacher's 1st F1 car.. he's under Renault's team before he went off to join Ferrari!! YAY!!! Smart choice!! :-p
And urmmm... I dunno why but they do have bikes too....
And then urmmm... also with some classic old cars.. *I thought it's F1 museum* *frown*
Then opposite the F1 museum is the Wine Museum!!
Me inside the wine museum where every rack contains different types of wine.. thats super a lot!!!
Can see??? Every rack contains this much wine leh!!!
And this is another rack... and here I think got more than 20 racks!!
At the end of the visit, we got to get a free wine tasting!! YAYYY!!! Me mum trying on the sweet taste of red wine... *psstttt* she didnt drink wine 1 hoh, but when she drank this, she said it's nice and she finished the whole thing!!
*blush* pai seh lar... I was tasting the sour taste and sweet taste of red wine.. both also tastes very very nice!! but i forgot to ask the hunky guy wats the name of da wine... T_T stupid me!!

Me looking tired after the whole journey... really tired leh... Oh and that pic beside me is of the "zaman purba" way of making wine... they use their feet to step on da grapes.. *shiverssss*

Then after that, we went off back to Kowloon where we stay at hotel till 8pm before we continue our "hunts"!! Well we went to Goldfish Street and Ladies Street where I bought 2 cute doggies (for handphone decoration) for Huei and Jace... of coz the white goes to Huei and the pink goes to Jace... need I say why??? hehehehehehe...

Then urmmm.... hehehehehe... can't resist when I saw this 2 pairs of peep toes shoes!! Girls will always be girls mar... hehehehehehe...
