Macau!

We got safely over to the other side, and arrived in Macau just an hour after leaving Hong Kong, by boat. When we left it was public posters everywhere saying "Typhoon signal nr 1 is hoisted", so we were a bit afraid the boats wouldn't go as usual, but they did, and it wasn't to much wind or waves or anything, actually.. So Typhoon nr1 was easy! At least on us, maybe it got worse after we left, I don't know..
Nothing much have happened since last time, K still won't write on our blog, but he is working on flickr right now, so you can enjoy our pictures;) And I still don't know why he didn't go swimming, it is a mystery, Jorid, I'm sorry.. I will push him to answer you;) Hahaha!

I can tell you about our hotel here in Macau, it has got ants everywhere, also in bed, and the walls, they don't go all the way up tp the roof, nor all the way down to the floor.. (Paa godt norsk: skillevegger..) So I guess you would call it paperthin walls, haha! We can hear our neighbour counting papermoney.. Hahaha! But it is so so cheap!

The first night we ate in a bit expensive italian restaurant, lovely fish, and saw all the casinos by night, quite a sight! And yesterday we walked all day, saw some churches, some ruins, some small streets, this doesn't remind us of China at all, but that is of course because it is a former portoguese (how to spell that in english??) colony, this is like Southern Europe.. Not like China:) And then we ate in an expensive restaurant again, have to get back to budget now!

Today it is raining like crazy, I have never seen anything like it, so maybe this is the Typhoon, but I don't think so, it is not windy, so I guess we're safe. We had planned a lovely day on the beach, but no, that's not happening now.. So it's a happy day on the internet instead;) The two last days have been too warm, it is impossible to sleep or do anything, I cannot remember to have felt this warm ever, but I guess I was in Africa.. And Bosnia, right, Silje? Not the best temperatures for me, but K is coping well with it:)

Guess that's it, tomorrow we are going back into real China, spending at least 3 more weeks before we enter South East Asia. Anyone going to Thailand in July? See you there;)

So long!
