We left Macau at past 5:00pm after our Macau Day Tour on May 30, 2009. We arrived in Hong Kong at past 6:00pm already as the traveling time with TurboJet fast ferry boat took only an hour from Macau to Hong Kong.

We decided to have dinner at Nha Trang Vietnamese Cuisine near Lan Kwai Fong in Central, Hong Kong as we were anyway around the area already.

After our lunch at the Grand Lisboa during our Macau Day Tour on May 30, 2009, we went to another casino hotel, to Wynn Macau. We were lucky enough because just when we arrived at Wynn Macau, the choreographed performance lake started.

We have not been to a lot of places yet in Macau Peninsula during our Macau Day Tour on May 30, 2009 when we got hungry. After visiting Macau Cathedral, we could not find a restaurant to our liking so we decided to have lunch at the Grand Lisboa upon seeing all the time the imposing tower of the casino hotel.

We also wanted to sit and eat comfortably. But before having lunch, we did not forget taking pictures and see the exhibition at the other end of the ground floor lobby near the hallway to the elevators when we arrived at the Grand Lisboa.

The church building was so simple and there were not a lot of people and tourists around the area unlike at the St. Dominic’s Square. We had no idea about the church but eventually learned upon entering the church that it was actually the Macau Cathedral.
