Macau

Went to Macau, Hk's casino island (becoming more like Vegas). Macau is eventually going to be a huge attraction like Las Vegas. Many of the American Casinos are opening new casinos on this island, an hour from Hong Kong island.

- the Fisherman's Wharf was actually a casino
- blackjack is different from the states (there's a surrender option when the dealer is showing a face card and you only lose half of your money...which is good if you have a 15 or 16 hand)
- the Venetian is very very nice!!
- WAR, there's actually the card game of war (bigger card wins). I love this game so that's all I played at the Venetian.
- Had the best meal thus far at Ali Curry Restaurant

Here are some pictures:
