Typhoon Hato

By | Macau | No Comments

 From 9am til 1pm – A storm like never before – Signal #10 which is like #5 to us in the Philippines. I’ve never experienced it before and never on the 27th floor of a hotel !  It was like an earthquake that never stopped and we are on the 27th floor!  Not only for a minute or a few minutes but for hours. I was so scared. I was also scared to ride the elevator to go down because it was shaking. I am used to storms but not being in a high floor haha!!!

But life went on in the @wynnpalace .  We lost electricity but they have a generator so we were all ok inside. At 4pm they lowered the signal to 8 #wynnpalacemacau #h2hmacau#typhoonhalo We are so blessed to be in a new building and one that had good facilities

 The day before we already received notice from the hotel .  They had already warned us to close our curtains and not to stay near the windows Typhoon Halo (3)When we woke up it was very quiet – it just looked gloomy. At first i was thinking whether our flight should have been really canceled but later on wow, this all changed!!! I have no photos from the window because I was scared to go near
Typhoon Halo (1) The staff were alert, the household staff were cleaning, people were eating and gambling 🙂 – we were actually safe inside the newly built hotel. Dennis a Pinoy  security guard assisted us down at around 130 pm because we wanted to eat.  There are 800 security guards all over the hotel/casino.Typhoon Halo (4)From this in the morning – the pool which we can see from our room
Typhoon Halo (2)  To this 🙁  Typhoon Halo (8)

 I looked out the window and saw one broken window – just the tint not the glassTyphoon Halo (9) Headlines the next day Typhoon Hato

 We have itchy feet haha!! we had to go out already of the hotel and find our Portuguese restaurant!!! So attempted to go out and this is what we saw –

Our hotel with some windows hit 🙁

By | Macau | One Comment

 Somewhere near Senado Square, we saw this shop selling local delicacies! I saw this also in City of Dreams and in the airport.  So they are popular and known!Koi Kei Bakery (5)  There are samples for tasting of everything and I am sure you will like something in this store.  Yummy pastries!!! These were my favorites from what I tasted

 They are known for eggrolls – this one was nice it had floor inside and the other had nori wrapped around it
