Our 2005 X-mas getaway -- Macau (Day 5-6)

Early morning around 7.30am we departed from Hong Kong to Macau. We bought the Turbo Jet ticket at Sheung Wan ferry pier and 10 minutes later we're off to Macau. As mentioned, the sea between Hong Kong and Macau is certainly one of the busiest ones in the world. Many people crossing from Hong Kong to Macau and vice versa everyday. Even early in the morning the ferry tickets had sold out. Journey was quite packed as we only spent 1 and a half day in Macau. However, it was really a great expedition.
