Before the trip, extensive research was done on the transport to the central; however, during dinner last night, we realize that we are able to walk to the central. From Casa Real to Central takes about 30 mins, provided you are not lost. (thank goodness I still remember the way from prev trip).
We went to the famous Sao Paulo Cathedral which is a must go when you are in Macau . On the way to Sao Paulo Cathedral, you will cross a stretch of shops selling barbeque pork which btw cannot be compared to Singapore 's Mei Zhen Xiang or any other brand and shops that sell the famous Ginger candy and almond cookies etc.
Generous sampling size are given along the way, make sure you keep some empty stomach =), the biscuit stores are great place to buy some back home while the barbeque pork store are known to be quite pricey. Unless you are a huge fan of their barbeque pork, I would not recommend buying from there.

Our next destination is Penha Church. Btw the trip to Penha Church drained the %$#&@#$ energy and brain cell out of me. We were given wrong direction and ended up walking much much more than we had and not forgetting the steep road up the hill to get to the church.
Nevertheless, we managed to drag ourselves up and enjoy the view from the top of the small hill. If only the weather would have been alittle clearer, the view would have been stunning.
Something interesting that we spotted was just outside the church, there is someone selling Buddhist items, lucky charms etc. Not exactly the best location I guess?
We hiked back down and went strolling around Macau Central again, grabbed some munchies on the way which was delicious and slowly make our way to Wynn and MGM casino.
Lose $$. Not Happy. We went for dinner after the long day and went back to rest. The following day, we are travelling to Hong Kong .
Stay tuned for HK trip!
