Macau by night.

So after the high octane adrenaline rush afternoon with my heart pumping so vigorously, still anxious from proposing to my beloved. She was left in a similar state of shock, baffled and greatly overwhelmed.

As we calmed down, and it sank into her mind. We were both elated to say the least. So now we are fiancé and fiancée. Woo!! 

So what a better way to end the day other than walking down the lovely and somewhat romantic streets of Senado square. The lightings, the cobblestone floor, the cool weather. Just perfect. 

After strolling, was time to eat some good food. 

After a hearty meal, then what else do you do but checkout the casinos. This being Grand Lisboa. 

The Proposal

Earlier this year, in March we headed to Macau and Hong Kong for holidays. Hong Kong is fast becoming one of our favourite destinations with all the good food and great value shopping available.

Well before we set foot into Hong Kong we were in Macau. Vegas of the East. Another amazing place, with really majestic looking hotels with great interiors and decor. Such architecture that would require so much planning, like The Galaxy below. 

The highlight definitely was The Venetian. A life size replica of Venice. With St Mark's Square and all. 

Another scenic highlight of Macau would definitely be the old Portuguese style architecture and cobblestone walkways. Not forgetting the icon of Macau, the ruins of St. Paul's cathedral. 

Hearts thumping!
 

 

Success! She said YES. Love of my life :)

So on the 5th (grace) of March (trinity) of 2013. I perfectly executed what I had been planning for months. To propose to my beloved Melissa :)

Enjoy all the photos of St Paul's Ruins in Macau and us as well!
