Team Rocket in HONG KONG and MACAU

This was our obligatory holiday that we had to make to pick up a new visa. It was a lot easier to return to our Vietnamese home because we spent the same amount of money in a week in Hong Kong that we normally spend in a month in Vietnam.

PICS FROM HONG KONG


On our way from the airport to the city center
so tall buildings have to have holes
for the spirits of the dead people to pass through





somewhere in Mong Kok at night



we thought they only build with the help of bamboo sticks in Vietnam
View from the top of HK (they call it "the Peak")



the slogan "The Peak I love you"

metro

taking a cable car to see the GIANT buddha

view on the way to the giant buddha


There's more to HK than just skyscrapers

Buddhas also like bubbles




awww. he misses ice hockey so much that he is even ready
to pose with Hello Kitties

..and go to a mall with an ice hockey rink inside

okay, the real reason why we went to that mall
was IKEA.


having dinner at one restaurant where it's possible to spot celebrities

underground HK

What can we do to make this happen?

vanilla and green tea ice cream with red bean paste, some grass jelly and taro balls (?)

THE FINNISH SECTION....
this is what we bought from IKEA (..from Sweden)


Huhtamäki - makes disposable packaging (from Finland)

Osmo Vänskä - a famous Finnish conductor

You can find everything in HK and now we know how it's possible

on our way back to the airport

safely back in Hanoi and back to the limited amount of personal space






































































































PICS FROM MACAU

The House of Dancing Water at City of Dreams.
How did they come up with the idea to build and create a massive
swimming pool -show inside a casino??  

During the show, there are 32 scuba divers working underwater...


some casinos

Our closest casino -The Venetian

inside the Venetian







with money you can build a floor that looks like Venice inside a casino
PANDA MANIA at Macau Panda Pavilion


excited to see the pandas 

happy to see the real pandas

These pandas master the technique of eating bamboo leaves.

so cute


extremely happy after having seen the pandas
