...Double-boiled milk, double boiled milk (sung to the tune of "Are you sleeping, are you sleeping, brother John, brother John). This is what I will be chanting for the next week or so until I leave for the land of casinos: Macau!
No, I am not going to gamble. Just using Macau as a stepping stone to go to Zhuhai, Shenzhen and Hong Kong. "Woah! That's a lot of places", you say.
Yup, but I am going to try. Hong Kong is optional, but it would be a case of 'so close and yet so far away' if I didn't go. One friend expressed that she already felt tired listening to my itnerary.
Guess I caught the pseudo backpack travel bug from my Dad. He just packs and goes (for the first time anyway and mainly in China at the moment) without planning much. He will then find out how to go where he wants wants to go when he reaches his destination. For example, he will reach Zhuhai and then decide where he wants to go and from there, find out whether it is more feasible to take bus or train. He has unofficially become China guide to my two aunts and me.
I must admire my Dad for being so adventurous too for is so bitten by the travel bug and budget airlines, that he has learnt how to make hotel reservations online.
Oh, as for the pseudo part of the backpack travel, I don't really carry that little and I would prefer to stay in at least a 3 or preferably 4 star hotel. Actually, as long as the hotel has got clean beds, carpets and toilets, I am fine. If not, my sensitive skin will start to each and my nose will start to react. Therefore, between spending money on comfort and spending money on doctor's fees, I would rather choose the former.
