Taipa

Largest casino in the world - apparently bigger than its little Las Vegas cousin. We couldn't get onto the casino floor as an age limit is strictly enforced - we might have been able to squeeze Davy through, but Meg's still a bit tough to pass for 21.

Not too sure what we expected, but the place is an enormous shopping mall of all the most expensive Western brands. We counted at least three wings that only had Swiss stuff - lots of Geneva watch brands that we'd never heard of before - probably because they don't let us into those stores in Geneva either! All the shop staff looked bored stiff - the place was fairly full for the off season, but there was not one customer in any of the stores. Perhaps the real spenders only come out at night.

Didn't end up spending too much time here (just enough to watch the indoor gondola and singer do his thing - Davy couldn't get over the fact that the gondola had an electric motor instead of the guy pushing it) before heading onward to the old town for our first vegan fare in China!Meer informatie
