Last few days... and some shots from before then I want to remember

Macau
(SEPT 8th, 2006) The Groupshot from our trip to Macau. Macau itself is not something spectacular - yet. The casinos are somewhat on the small side, and an American is naturally inclined to compare its sights to Vegas... against which Macau cannot stand. However the city has recieved an infusion of dollars and investment lately, such as the opening of the Sands and Wynn casinos (these casinos have propelled the owner of the Sands into the top 5 richest americans). Maybe in a few years... it'll be everything a young playboy could dream of.

Bling bling
SEPT 22nd. We took a boat trip in Clear Water Bay after Mark hooked us up with some mainland chinese students. This shot is of me and Ruby (mark's girlfriend) The day was fun, we swam, went to a semi-privatebeach, and rode a 'banana boat' which was roped to a motor boat.... and fell in at high speeds many times. I ended up with quite a burn on my nose.. because I'm intense and don't believe in sunblock.


Lan Kwai Fong


Lan Kwai Shot
Lan Kwai, or LKF as it is affectionately known to exchange students and expatriates, is Hong Kong Island's expat party district, consisting of a few streets of bars, clubs, and other assorted venues dedicated towards getting you drunk, entertaining you, and wiping out your days earnings within a few hours... or a few minutes.
Medina
this is Medina, a hookah bar located on an LKF side street. Early on in our LKF escapades, nights began or ended here. Good ambiance leads to pleasant moods and chill times... helped along by shisha smoke.
Getting a light
Its true, people are friendly in LKF! as long as you don't catch them on the belligerent end of a few drinks too many..



Some of the photos here are ripped from AshleyC and AmandaB.
