Back in action--- 2007 Family trip- Zhuhai

Have been away from my own blog for quite some time. Not that I have nothing to blog about but i've been busy lately, sometimes too tired to blog, not forgetting a blog which i blog half way then all gone just like that. (next time must save draft) I've been active on the internet though, most of the time checking mail, reading newspaper, reading other ppl's blog etc.

Now where shall I start? Hmm... Let's start from my recent family trip.

I went to China with my family members early this month. It was a balik kampung cum shopping cum htroliday trip. Balik kampung because our main aim were to visit my 1st aunt in GuangZhou and 1st cousin in ZhuHai.

Since our flight reach Macau in the evening, we grab the chance to visit the famous Macau casino--Grand Lisboa. It was a love at 1st sight for me to discover Macau. Shops in town area are very well organised.



The shops are not big and not as grand as a shopping area but it gives a very comfy feeling :) The casino is very big and a multilevel building with different level of games. They provide free drinking water too. The dome behind me in the picture is the casino. The digital words on the dome is always changing in different pattern and words.







This casino area is separated by a river and the 2 bridge that allow the people to cross over it is spectacular especially at night when all the lights are on, making the whole area so happening.


We then put a night at a apartment-hotel in ZhuHai so that it's more convenient to visit my cousin who stays in ZhuHai as well.

It was raining in ZhuHai the next day morning. We are lucky that a relative of my cousin is kind enough to offer to drive us around ZhuHai. ZhuHai is very very near to Macau, at a place where it's as near as it's just separated by a small river. We had lunch at a pure Hakka restaurant operated by Hakka from the same Hakka village that my family were from. It's so tasty and touching is have taste the real Hakka food.

Clockwise from top left corner: Vege soup, chicken soup, pork meat, famous hakka yong tao hoo.
