Macau (again!)

I made another trip to Macu at the end of July, but this time with Sabina and Kristen. My last trip to Macau with Amish, we spent more time in the casinos either walking around, watching shows, or on the casino floor. This time, we spent lots of time eating, checking out the casinos, and exploring the historic area of Macau.

  Exploring Senado Square in the historic area.

 We had dinner on night at a Portuguese place called Alfonso's where we ordered from a handwritten menu that changed every day. The food, wine, and cheese was excellent! Needless to say, we had a few other excellent meals too.

 We got some Portuguese egg tarts from a place called Margarets. You know a place is good when there are two lines out the door (one for ordering egg tarts and one for picking up your order). I think everyone there ate an average of 3 tarts a person. We ate 2 each. Yum yum!

  Ruins of St. Paul's Church - only the front wall remains.
