Another year has passed quietly and gladly, we got on with our second trip with almost the same group of friends and their family. This time, our trip was planned in such a way that we took budget airlines, i.e. Tiger Airways from Singapore to Macau and for our return flight, from Hong Kong back to Singapore via Jetstar. We arranged land tour from a local agent and the tour encompassed a day trip in Macau and cross over to China’s Zhuhai for a night stay. After sightseeing in Zhuhai, we left for Shenzhen by coach where we spent day 2 and 3 there. On day 4, we travelled by rail to Hong Kong where we stayed for another 2 nights. All in all, this 6 days 5 nights tour with 17 of us of which 9 are kids ranging from 3 to as old as 15 years old would visit 4 theme parks.
As we are catching an early flight at 6.05 am to Macau, we travelled by van from our homes at around 2.00 am to the Singapore Changi’s Budget Terminal. The clearance was smooth at both side of the causeway at this hour and we were at the airport in less than 1 and a half hour. The crowd at the budget terminal wasn’t that huge but food outlets seem lacking and seats were notably inadequate as well.
After a long wait, we finally boarded the plane, TR906 which took off according to schedule for our flight to Macau. The journey took 3 hours and 40 minutes and we finally arrived at the Macau International Airport. However, the wait for our local tour guide to pick us up at the airport was a long one due to miscommunication but nevertheless, our spirits remained high, looking forward to an exciting and hectic days ahead.
