来到澳门,有什么地方值得去? 澳门著名的大大小小赌场中,如果纯粹抱着观光心态的话,应该去哪一个赌场? 经过了一番考虑后,我们决定在威尼斯人酒店相遇。过后会和大家分享如何在澳门使用赌场的穿梭巴士免费前往各个景点。为什么是威尼斯人酒店? 

威尼斯人度假村酒店位于路氹城填海区金光大道地段,占地1050万平方呎,是亚洲最大的单幢式酒店及全球第二大的建筑物。酒店以意大利水都威尼斯为主题,酒店周围内充满威尼斯特色拱桥、小运河及石板路,充满威尼斯人浪漫狂放享受生活之异国风情。除了建筑特色外,威尼斯人度假村拥有世界一流的博彩、会展、购物、体育、综艺及休闲设施等。其中豪华客房超过六十平方米、大运河购物区近十万平方米并汇集世界名牌、水疗中心占地八千平方米,以及拥有高超表演的驻场表演的太阳马戏团等。

更重要的是酒店拥有的八百多张赌枱的博彩大厅亦是其它赌场难及的优势。共有850张赌桌,4100台角子机(老虎机),赌桌数量全世界第一。

从澳门机场出来后,我便乘搭蓝色的威尼斯人酒店接驳巴士来到了威尼斯人,大概15-20分钟左右,很方便呢!

一踏进威尼斯人的大厅就被这金光熠熠的金球吸引住了~ 这里到处都是金碧辉煌的景色啊~

不时还有可爱的吉祥物出来和大家合照,免费的嘻嘻

小贴士
为了方便赌客们可以更加尽情地享受,威尼斯人赌场提供免费寄放行李服务,就在金球和大厅柜台之间而已,行李都是放在一个很大的储藏室里,很安全。他们会给顾客一张收据之类的,和行李的编号,方便顾客们领取行李。
在去澳门之前,我一直担心行李的问题,因为我不只会呆在威尼斯人,我还要去大三巴之类的,怎么办呢?其实就算不是赌客或者住宿客人,游客也一样可以善用这个设施寄放行李后去参观赌场,然后去参观大三巴,渔人码头,澳门塔等等景点后,在离开澳门前去威尼斯人领回行李就可以啦。最重要的是免费的。 大爱威尼斯人

威尼斯人美丽的长廊。 这个长廊的尽头就是赌场的入口处啦

再来一张金碧辉煌的长廊~很堂皇

早就听闻威尼斯人厕所也不同凡响的故事了,来到了这里就亲身验证一下,一进去:哇哇哇!! 单单洗手的地方就比我的公寓宿舍总面积还要大了

偶尔还有神秘风格造型的工作人员出来和游客们合照。 
在这里的工作人员除了黄色制服之外就是典型的贡多拉船夫的造型哟!

经过一番折腾, 我终于等到了两位闺蜜的到来啦~ 
因为在港澳关卡的时候人流多,她们稍微花了一些时间,而我就趁着这个时间到处走走逛逛。
然后我们就去威尼斯人的餐饮去来享用我在澳门的第一餐~ 麦当劳的猪扒汉堡包!和泰国的麦当劳猪扒包比较起来,比较贵之外也没有泰国的好吃。

赌场
吃完以后我们就去逛赌场。因为赌场不能够拍照的关系所以就没有照片看啦。这是我第二次进赌场 (第一次在南非的太阳城赌场),威尼斯人的赌场还真的不是一般的大,而且有很多桌牌。也许是早上的关系,赌客们都还没有睡醒,所以显得比较冷清。这里的赌博也五花八门,有啤牌,老虎角子机,大小,俄罗斯盘等等。原本想试下手运玩大小,没想到最低筹码居然是澳门币500元 (相等于马币RM250左右),就只剩下看人玩得份儿。不过人家说赌场上十赌九输,也不假,我们在啤牌桌那里看了十分钟,那玩家一下子就输光了手上的筹码了。赌场内每走10步头顶就有一个闭路监视器,想耍老千都不行

对了,进去赌场的时候,每一次都必须显示护照,几个入口处的工作人员都很严格地检查,防止18岁以下的少年混入赌场,而且不时会看到工作人员监督,想找个相片都没门。

在只看不赌的情况下,我们只逗留了30分钟余就走去了大运河那里。威尼斯人的大运河购物中心到处都是我们穷学生买不起的名牌。

威尼斯人运河
大運河購物中心內有3條室內運河,這分別是大運河、聖路卡運河及馬可孛羅運河,這3條運河互不相通,各運河中有多條貢多拉船往來穿梭,顧客可付費乘船遊覽各運河。這3條運河的設計意念源於威尼斯水鄉的迷人景色為主題,運河周圍充滿威尼斯特色建築群及拱橋,讓人猶如置身於浪漫的威尼斯,享受異國風情。

运河的其中一个景象~ 天空是天花板来的,以假乱真的程度还真让人佩服。短短1个月内,我去了两个以威尼斯为主题的地方,还有一个是华欣的威尼斯广场。什么时候我才有本事去探索真正的威尼斯呢? 

大运河,威尼斯风格的建筑物和贡多拉。在华欣的时候已经坐过贡多拉了,所以在这里也只是看的份儿。大运河购物中心三条运河互不相通,各有约10条的贡多拉船,轮流在各自的航道穿梭,每程约15分钟,船夫多是外籍人士,依顾客的喜好,一边掌船一边唱歌。船费嘛,一点也不便宜。


威尼斯风格的建筑物,其实是大运河购物广场

贡多拉漫游在浪漫的河道上。相信真正的威尼斯是更加美丽的!

很幸运地我们遇上了第三个神秘风格加踩高跷的面具人~我好矮啊

这里还有圣马可广场等地方~

逗留大约2个小时之后我们便穿过赌场来到了西出口乘搭接驳巴士,准备前往氹仔码头后,转搭前往美高梅赌场的接驳巴士(橙色)去澳门的古迹区。是不是很方便?很喜欢威尼斯赌场的一条龙服务

威尼斯人赌场的外观~
其实外面还有很多威尼斯风格的建筑物还有一个很大的人工湖。

来到了澳门不要忘记前往威尼斯人酒店参观一番啦!!

so we reached our last stop of our cafe hopping of the day~ B&W coffee house located in Jalan Muntri, just a few steps away from Purrfect Coffee Shop. It is a small cafe, with something unique which makes it so outstanding among the Penang Cafes. 

The outlook of the B&W coffee house, it is a corner house so it is easily recognised 

they don serve main dishes but they do have some desserts here. Well we came here for coffee so we don really try out their desserts~ 

What makes thing interesting here?? Let's have a look!
Tadaa~ the tables and chairs here are made from cardboard! Don worry they are not as fragile as we thought haha. So scared we will break the chairs easily but it don! quite stable instead. We just impressed with the creativity of the cafe owner to have such a idea and it is environmental friendly too! 

They even make a small house and something like "pseudo-Christmas tree" from cardboard! 

Lamps from cardboard ^^


The menu and the price list of B&W coffee house coffee~ The choices are quite limited but this is good so they can control their coffee quality. But this was a bad news to one of my frens who don really love coffee >..< ( 3 out of 4 of us are.... COFFEE ADDICTS) 
the coffee sold at reasonable price, cheaper than starbucks LOL, the taste also satisfactory. 

admit it we came to this cafe for their coffee box instead of the coffee itself! 
any friend coffee is a friend of mine, nice quote ^^ 

having a good time with my coffee
oh yea we ordered 1 cold and 1 hot cup of coffee. 

B&W Coffee RM8.90
we ordered their signature coffee, and unbox the coffee box to have a look into it~ teedeng! 
actually it just a cup of coffee inside the box la, just the box makes it special in appearance =)
not sure what kind of coffee it was actually but it was nice! not too sweet and not to bitter~

Hot mocha RM7.90
as usual, always a cup of mocha for me~ mocha lover. 

enjoy our coffee moment here before we left Penang~ 
wish that they can have more choices in future becoz it is really a cafe worth for recommendation

After we had our first brunch at Secawan 'n' Such cafe, we decided to have another meal again. Since some of us were craving for pasta, we headed to Folks Cafe located at Lebuh Acheh ( the lane with wedding mural) for our second brunch. We had our great time here and I really love to have cafe hopping with my girls~ get new try in a new cafe, chit chatting and share our stories with one another after separation for months. True friendship never fade I could say =))

This is the outlook of the cafe. It also a backpacker hotel at its side. 

The interior design of the cafe
The light was a bit dimmed, but the decoration is more towards ethnic trend to me. Which make it special! There was no one there during our arrival, so we just stick our ass to sofa seats as we love to do haha. 

Oh ya, we have to make order and do our payment to the counter here~

The menu of the cafe
there is a logo of fox and rabbit for Folks cafe, which represent the owner haha. The choices in the menu were quite limited, but why suffer our brain so much on what to eat with multiple choices? sometimes I prefer a simple menu so I could make my decision easier. And we just asked the owner to kindly recommend us their signature dishes =)) she is very friendly

the decoration of the wall with colourful feathers~ 

I love this corner so much~ with some greenish plants make tis cafe more lively. It is nice to have a seat here, enjoy the food and spend a leisure afternoon. 

Our sofa corner with colourful pillows. I really wish to ask where they get the pillow sheet haha
it was so comfortable to hug a pillow, sit on a sofa and have a nice chat with besties while waiting for our food. Feel like HOME. 

What are we doing? we were imitating something

Ok lar we were actually imitating the logo of fox and rabbit for FOLKS cafe but it looks like we had a bad one. Xp

Lemon Rosemary RM9
It look attracting and the combination is new to me. But I don really try it out because..... I hate rosemary. Yea I use the word hate becoz I could not stand neither the smell nor the taste of rosemary at all. but my frens love this beverage, they said it was quite refreshing. 

Lychee Lime RM9
I just stick back to my all time favorite Lychee haha. It is sweet and sour at the same time, really stimulate my taste buds. 

Together with my girls~


Lychee Lime vs Lemon Rosemary

Meatball Bolognese RM15
The meatballs were awesome!! just imagine a crumpled of whole juicy meat 'explode' in your mouth, we just cant stop our mouth from eating it. The bolognese sauce was tasty.  

The pasta was well-cooked, the meatball, bolognese sauce and pasta made a nice combination together here. my saliva gland was stimulated once again~ 

Smoked Salmon Skinny Pizza RM18
What I would like to say is you MUST try this here! they used their home-made dressing and tomato sauce for this pizza with lots of salmon topping on it. It was so... smoky haha. Someone just get herself crazy with salmon once again =..= not me! it was quite crunchy~ 

Meet this huge guy in the cafe! it belongs to the owner,and with its size I could not imagine that it is just a 9 month old puppy! gosh. At first the owner kept it in the counter ( with string in case the customers freaked out with the presence of dogs). When we made our order we spotted it and we tried to play with it. After the owner double confirmed that we were not afraid of it, she just let it out so we can play around with it. It was just too adorable with its toys and lazy look! 

with the seats outside the cafe

Meet with my bestie~ Welcome back to Penang Min ^^ 
I cant really wait for a next cafe hopping again with my girls, we had lots of fun and sharing together.

During our second day afternoon in Hua Hin, we visited a small town with "good old days" along the main road in Hua Hin. It is the centre of happiness, a place where we could recall the past and paused the best moment there. It is actually a place for local traditional and culture "live museum", it is a MUST visit in Hua Hin. We spent around an hour there happily before we departed to Hua Hin Vineyard Hill. 
The outlook of Plearnwan, very striking and attracting, it is super easy to find this location. They have their own parking lots behind the building, so it is at the same time very convenient to us. 

greeted by these beautiful hanging lamp once we entered the building. It is time to reminisce the past! 

my chok sister under the signboard haha. 

The overview of Pleanwan. 
It is a double storey wooden complex of shophouses, we can get traditional food and some fashion clothes here. Once we get ourselves in, we can feel the atmosphere of the old days. 

we get ourselves a cup of coffee here. It is Thaistyle brewed coffee, sounds attracting haha. 

Souvenirs are available here at reasonable price. 

A man fashioning nam tan pan (local candy) into various shapes of candy. 

our cold mocha with a pair of cute string besides it
we bought the coffee just because of the cup! haha

Hi there! welcome to Plearn Wan Vintage Village

the view of Plearn Wan from the first floor. 
The purpose of PlearnWan is to enable the local people to benefit from the establishment by selling their own product, promote tourism, and a place for an event happening. 
We can get traditional food, clothes, accessories and souvenirs here. 


Me and my mummy. I got my hat here at price of about 180baht I guess? Honestly I love my hat as well as this place so much! 

Showing off my new hat haha
this is a place where local and tourist can spend their leisure time here. I really love this concept compared to shopping mall. Just jealous ><

Then we get ourselves a mini crispy pancake stuffed with shredded coconut and peanuts at price of about 50 baht. erm, I do not really know how to eat this X..X

Still I had some bites. Although I don really like the taste but just try their local delicacies here, it is an experience wat 


There is a small Ferris wheel at the end of the complex. 


a corner with vivid colour. 

Overall, just don MISS OUT  this place!!! There is a cinema and a B&B here too. I wish Penang can have a place with such a concept soon, just a simple nice old classics.
