On the 4th day of our Hong Kong trip, Kate planned for us to take a side trip to Macau! In the morning of our 4th day, we decided to drop by the Kowloon Park…

Kowloon Park
The Kowloon Park is actually a great place for morning exercises and strolls. There’s also lakes such as this one where flamingos abound!
After a stroll, we decided to take a break at Macs for our 2nd breakfast (yes, eventhough we already had breakfast). The tonkotsu pasta with grilled chicken (something that you dont see in Singapore’s breakfast menu) was just too enticing! Not too bad actually, though you could taste that it came out of a pack of seasoning – still…
Then we moved on to the swimming complex and imagined how it would be like during summer months…
Since it was a clear morning, we decided to head towards the Avenue of Stars to take some pictures of the day time. Along the way we passed by the atas Peninsula Arcade…
And finally we chanced upon the clock tower as well!

Avenue of the Stars
It was great to finally be able to take some pictures of the Avenue of the Stars in the day time. We also managed to identify some of our favourite stars…
Lan Fong Yuen
After searching online, we found great comments for the milk tea and buns at Lan Fong Yuen, so we decided to check it out…
This morning we tried the bo luo you, milk tea, coffee as well as the pork bun…
After a hearty meal, we checked out and headed over to the ferry terminal to catch our ride to Macau. Along the way, we caught a looooooooooooooooong procession of lion dance…
Macau
We took the Cotai Water Jet to Macau
To travel to Macau, you will have to purchase the ticket at the ferry terminal for 160hkd per person for a 1 way ticket. Since the frequency is quite high, you will just purchase the ticket and immediately head towards the berth for the next trip out. Ferry ride from Hong Kong to Macau takes about 1 hour and you can take the ferry from Central and Tsim Sha Tsui.
Regency Hotel Macau
After reaching Macau, we took one of the local buses which took us close to the Regency Hotel. The bus ride was relatively cheap and the Uncle was also quite friendly in guiding us to the correct bus stop. Remember to keep some change so that you can take the bus ride!
After checking in, we decided to waste no time and headed to the Taipa Village. Enroute, we took a break at a cafe/restaurant and had some vermicelli and pork bun…
We tried the Chicken Chop with Bee Hoon as well as the Pork Chop Bun. Both sets came with drinks which was great. Costs about 30MOP.
Taipa Village Macau
After a 15 minutes walk, we finally reached Taipa Village. Here, we tried some of the local specialities, including the famous portuguese egg tarts.
One of the main attractions here is also the Houses Museum which depicts life during the colonial period.

Cotai Strip Macau
Another short walk away was Cotai Strip where we enjoyed the views of the hotels along the strip. In addition, we managed to check out the Venetian, one of the main attractions here along the Cotai Strip. As it was the Christmas period, there was also the light display shown on the walls of the Venetian…
