Macau- Today I rode the ferry and hired a driver to take me around the island of Macau. The nearly 400 tears of Portuguese rule that ended in '99 is still alive in the colorful, elegant buildings, squares, and churches. It has only taken about 4 years for the casinos to add flashier color to Macau, but this juxtaposition makes the island truly unique. The Venetian is 3x the size of the one in Vegas! Just returned to Hong Kong to see the harbor light show!
