On the second day we just hung about in Macao. Ah Yee took us to visit the Ruins of St Paul’s,Plaza Senado and for some shopping. I think the only reason Greg even agreed to go out that day was the promise of some roasted pork and duck meal in town. Ah Yee and Uncle Jim calls it ‘rough and ready’ meal. Oh.. but it was really yum-yum.. We did it justice alright…and ordered seconds!
After lunch and my husband appeased..we went and did a little sight-seeing. Well, we must see the ruins..Everyone and anyone who has set foot on Macao visits the ruins..besides the casinos of course.I must say Macao may be small but it’s definitely very congested. There are flats everywhere and the it’s quite old fashioned in a way and you cannot miss the Portuguese influence. It’s everywhere..the buildings especially. But we didn’t last too long walking as we also had a whiny 4 year old with tired feet and sleepy eyes.. But I think he did very well. As Ah Yee has pointed out…he’ll probable have to take 2-3 steps for every 1 step of an adult. Have you ever thought about that?
We went home in the evening..after I’ve packed the kids off to bed, I helped Ah Yee to prepare dinner. The Leongs were coming over for some home cook meal. Ah Yee prepared some yummy pork belly,stir-fry beef with kailan, ‘wat-tan’ beef.
