Palm Sunday 2008

Yey, we were able to attend the mass :) Hay.. honestly we're an occasional church goer hehe hirap din kasi pag kasama namin si Dani. I don't get to concentrate on the mass tapos naiinip pa sya agad. Not to mention mga kasama mo na nadi-distract kay Dani. Anyways, basta happy ako may palaspas kami :)

After hearing mass direcho shopping hehe actually nasa loob ng SM yung mass kaya ganun. Eh kahapon may binili akong tights kay dani na super tight so sinoli ko na lang and bought white pants for her instead. Managed to score also white sandals. 3day sale kasi so syempre nakaka-enganyo bumili.

Maaga naman kami natapos, we just bought Andoks chicken and liempo and had lunch at home na lang. Around past 4pm, nagpaalam ako kay hubby na magswimming kami ni dani :) Nakup yung dalawang swimsuit na binili ko before kay dani, masikip talaga kahit pa yung isa 2yo ang size tapos yung isa 3yo, tsk. Anyways, enjoy na naman si kulit magtampisaw sa tubig. Buti hindi nagwala nung niyaya na naman syang umahon :) 5:30 pa lang, bagsak na ang anak ko. Napagod hehe kami din kaya ni hubby, masakit ang mga braso kaka-karga kasi.

Yun na lang muna kwento, bukas na lng ulit. Hope you guys had a great weekend!

Day 1 - Macau : Square Tart Tea Dumplings


5:45 - after the HKD49 taxi ride from taipa, we stopped in front of the senado square. we frantically searched for the infamous egg tart but to no avail. we managed to see a foreign exchange stall who accepts pesos though. HKD in hand, we are back in business.


6:00 we were able to get our fill from milk tea HKD10 each and dumplings HKD7.2 for 6pcs

6:30 Saw St. Dominic's Church
7:00 already dark, still no egg tart, we decided to end our uphill walking tour with the fortress looming before us and no signs of St. Paul Ruins yet. downhill we go.
7:20 anticipating muscle cramps for tomorrow, we went inside Watsons hoping to find ibuprofen pills for naught. instead, we were able to buy preserved plums HKD6, jackfruit chips HKD25, 800ml water HKD5.8 and panty liners HKD11.4. From the drugstore next door, we decided not to buy the doubious ibuprofen handed to us.

This is going to be a long night..

Day 1 - Macau : Temple, Houses, Garden and Church


4:18 - Passed by the Sam Po Temple

4:20 - Macanese residents saw three crazy girls jumping their hearts out (click thumbnails to see who jumped the highest)
4:30 - Taipa Houses are all painted with the same color, I wonder why.. white exterior shutters reminds me of the dream house in "The Notebook"




5:00 - we saw various flowers from the garden nearby. climbing uphill, we saw the church

5:20 - we decided to sweat it out a little :D we saw these kinds near MOA. Me, the gym buff-wanna be.
