Bob Chronicals!!! - Macau Day 2

Today Mr Tour Guide say Bob and Mommy have to dress in nicer clothes coz we are going into very GRAND Casinos and will be watching MANY SHOWS! Bob is so excited!
Mommy gave Bob a blue bow tie and Bob looks instantly Bobbbi-some!!! Bob thinks he might meet the right girl today! Mommy wanted me to wear a red carnation, but Bob likes his ears and the red carnation blocked Bob's cute ears so Bob did not wear the un-bobsome flower.
First stop was the Fisherman Wharf! One moment its the chinese Tang Dynasty look-alike,

The next moment is the small cliff houses where the fisherman live bob thinks! they may not look like it, but these are really small houses with really small windows just nice for Bob! Bob's not sure about the chinese thing up there ( which is still not opened for visitors) , but Bob knows tt it is a theme park!!! Bob knows there is volcano there!!! Bob's scared... but Bob's SOOOO excited... What awaits inside???!!!

First stop, Mr Tour Guide brought us into the City Mall for some relieving air conditioning ( Remember how Bob said it was soo hot yesterday??? It's still VERY VERY HOT today) and to buy some cold drinks too! There was no one outside... and there's only the cashier inside... but the drinks are interesting and at a good deal too!

As Mr Tour Guide led us on... we came upon some ancient Rome stone walls that reminds Bob of empty maze filled with menacing traps and dry cracked bones and skulls from people who died of hunger....

There is a quiet and souless galdiator's arena behind the stone wall....

and a empty train left cluelessly in the middle of the plaza... with no train conducter, no passenger and no body around.... only Mommy, Mr Tour Guide... and BOb. o.O

WHERE DID ALL THE PEOPLE GO TOOO!??!??!?! HELLO HELLO??? ANYBODY THERE???!!! THIS IS AN ANCIENT GHOST TOWN!!!!

After all the scary moments, Bob hid back into Bob's bag and the next time Bob came out... Bob was in air-con again sitting on a luxurious chair meant for Bob the Bobby-Some King of all Rabbits! Humans have to bow down to me!!! They must acknowledge Bob's RibbI EmPIRE by wearing Rabbit Themed Clothes or else OFF WiTH THEIR HEADS!!!
So here is Mr Tour Guide with his "Follow the Rabbit" Shirt...

And here's Mommy with Black and White rabbit coming out from Magician's Hat! Bob is the King and Bob RULES!!! Everyone must listen to Bob!!! Then....
Suddenly... Bob.... Bobb.... Bob the King saw Jane the Princess... Jane is sooo sweet... Bob... Bob's mesmerized.... Bob... Bob dun't know what to say... she's beautiful....Bob... Bob....
Bob is in love.......Bob has a song for Jane....



Bob... Bob...........................ZzZzzzzzzZzzz.....
The next time Bob woke up Mommy and Mr TG was watching an AWESOME 3D show with the screen the shape of a DOME!!! Up above us!!!! There was sea creatures... tiger... DRAGONS... Everything look so real!!! But bob forgot where he saw this... will Mr TG tell him?

Heylo! I am Bob! Bob go Macau!!!! Bob use Tiger Airways to go Macau! Departure time is 6am!

Bob is all ready for Holidays in Macau and Hong Kong! Bob says invest in a TSA lock or a lauggage with TSA lock to keep your valuables and lock safe and intact and to facilitate checks!

Bob can read itenaries!

Bob loves Siong! Siong is the official tour guide for the holiday!

Bob can eat TWO Macdonalds Breakfast! Just that Bob can't hold fork and knife..... Bob likes the pancakes more! A good breakfast before setting off with Tiger Airways as no food will be provided! You pay for the food and cup noodles up in the air costs as much as a Mac breakfast! Gobble up!

Bob don't like seat belt because bob small, you can't find bob under seat belt...

Bob loves grooming and massage! Bob so SHUANG!
Going to take off soon!
Because we take off at 6am from the East at Changi, we get to see the sunrise from the plane!

And we arrive at Macau!!!!

And Bob is weary because Bob at Changi since 9pm and no sleep.... But bob freshened up later when we reach hotel! The hotel bobbly nice! See Mr Tour Guide saying he found good place for me and mommy to stay! This is the view we see just behind hotel! Me say bobbbly good view! Good Job Mr Tour Guide!

See!! This is the causeway Bob travelled from Macau... TO MACAU!!! hehe! As you can see, Macau is made up of islands so we need to travel from the lower part of Taipa where our hotel is to the upper part of Macau where all the BIIGGG and COLOURFULLLLL casinos are!!! But Mommy is on budget and it is SOOOO much more expensive to live in the part of Macau Peninsula where all the big CASINOS are, and sooo much cheaper to stay at the other side! Mr Tour Guide also found a very good hotel!
Anyway, it takes less than 10 mins to travel from one side to the other... its still very convenient!!! See the map bobilow!

This is Wynn dancing water fountain! This is in the day showing casino 4 to 6, Wynn, Starworld and Sands! Below got night time one! Night time one nicer!

AND THIS IS BOB'S HOME!!! My bag in a bag!
And I am OUT!!!! My adventure in CASINOs Begin!!!


People who go to Macau like three things:
  1. Dragon and Pheonix
  2. Money and coin tree
  3. and everything GOLDEN!

And the people in Macau sure know how to please their customers!!!



And when the dragon show ends, the dragon goes back to it's cove and all that's left is the smoke from it's firey breath! Dragon show and Golden Tree show runs every 30 min! Be sure to catch them!
and this is the toilet in Wynn! Fitted for KING BOB~!! Bob is the KING!!!! BOB is King Bob the FIRST! YAY!!!!



And this is the Senado Square!!! Tada Tada Tada!!!! The 3700m, Leal Senado Square is paved with a wave-patterned mosaic of coloured stones, created by Portuguese experts. Bob lovEs this place!!! There is a place (try to locate it!) at the far left of this picture that sells super super delicious warm milk pudding! Mommy will be in charge of introducing all the food we had! Lovely Bob only help to show places Bob bobby bobby bobbiling around!
When its not sooo Hot (but still very hot!!!) we went to the Ruins of St.Paul's Cathedral, by George Chinnery (1774–1852). The cathedral was built in 1602 and destroyed by fire in 1835. Only the southern stone façade remains today. AND VERY WELL PRESERVED!!! Bob's so amazed.... see Bob stand in front of the Ruins... Bob went... BOOOOWwwwwwwwww......
And this is Mommy and Mr Tour Guide!!! They climbed the flight of stairs!!! Bob small rabbit cannot hop up the stair so Mommy carried me in her Bag! Bob also in the picture!!! But Bob small rabbit... try to spot Bob ME on Mommy and Mr TG hands!!!!

Bob's still so so amazed.... see Bob still stand in front of the Ruins... Bob still went... BOOOOWwwwwwwwww......
After that Bob went to Paulo do Monte! It is a Fort!! With Lots of CANONSS!!!! it was built between 1617 and 1626 as part of the church of St. Paul's project and with the added purpose of defending the city from possible attacks. It is VERY HIGH up a hill, Mommy and Mr TG finished a bottle of PoCari in order to reach the peak! But we were vey very well rewarded with a spectecular view of Macau!!!

Then Bob tried to control the Canon and aimed Casinos!!! BOB AIMED AT THE BIGGEST CASINO!!! (Bob did this after he finish going around the casino! Bob Smart rabbit!) But Bob small Rabbit... Bob fell into the Canon and got blasted out from it instead... Bob became KAMAKAZEEEE Bob!!!! It took Mommy and Mr TG hours to find poor Bob among the bushes... these canons are not for rabbits below the age of 3!

Bob with the very colourful night view of Macau's Casino in the background with Wynn's dancing water fountains that shows at every 15min interval! All shows are different cheorographs to different music! You can stay and watch the water fountains cheorographed to dance from classical music to disney's songs! Bobby bobby nice! Whynn Casino is Bob's and Mommy's and Tour Guide's favourite Casino!
But we are good children. We never gamble at all! We *go in watch free dragon show then come out watch free water fountain show then go in watch free golden tree show then come out watch free water fountain then *repeat....
