Macau at night

Here a some pictures I took the other nite while walking around with the family looking at all the Christmas decorations.
ALthough they dont celebrate Christmas here, they have done a wonderful job of decorations for all the foreigners here and making it feel like Christmas.

Macau is a gambling city...thats it. In terms of revenue, it has surpassed Las Vegas. Many new casinos are being built. The Venetian is set to open in July 2007.
A pic of the Wynn casino. I had to throw in a Rolex shot.
The Macau tower, I believe it is the 10th highest building in the world.

Really interesting place.

Merry Christmas

Nice pictures Larry.

At first all I was getting was small red X's but now they have come through in their full glory.

Merry Christmas.

Great pics, Larry. I was in Macau once for part of a day, as the jumping off point for a day trip into China. But it sure didn't look like that.
