Grand Canal Shoppes

When we were at the Venetian Hotel in Macau, we headed to the Grand Canal Shoppes which is an upscale shopping mall adjacent to The Venetian Hotel & Casino.

The mall was opened along with the Venetian in 1999. It has a Venetian theme, and has indoor canals where gondolas are used.

We had to take our dinner first before we explored the various sections of the grand hotel.

Views surrounding this place.


Look at the sky. It's forever daytime




We didn't get to experience the ride on the gondola. It was already late at night.

    The noodle soup looks quite appealing, but I like the picture of that forever daytime the most!

    I just read all the posts you wrote while I was away and enjoyed them a lot. Your pictures of the food made me very hungry, everything looks so appetizing. Today at lunch we went to a restaurant called Hong Kong but they did not have the type of dishes you showed! I’d love to visit Hong Kong – we met a lady from there while on our trip to Europe and she told us a little bit about it too. Macau looks like a grander version of Las Vegas – it must be very interesting. Thanks for coming to my blog and for your nice comments.

Twin bananas

Image
Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
