Awesome birthday

My birthday stretched from Wednesday through to Sunday and it was fantastic.

I met Mum and Dad and Caroline after school each day and looked around Hong Kong with them (with a fair bit of shopping thrown in).  We had a beautiful meal up at Rico's Spanish Restaurant on Friday and then went to Macau for the weekend.

We had great weather, a beautiful hotel with a room bigger than my apartment, we did touristy things, visited a couple of casinos, and went to the House of Dancing Water.  What a weekend!

The House of Dancing Water was a show a little similar to Cirque du Soleil, with a water theme and lots of clever acrobatics.  I loved it!  We sat there open-mouthed through it - I could watch it over and over again.

It was definitely the highlight, but also loved the Chinese gardens we wandered through, and the famous Venetian Casino.

I feel very spoiled, with Mum and Dad visiting, bringing Caroline as a surprise, taking me out for a birthday dinner, and then a show in Macau!  Best birthday ever.  Thanks Mum and Dad!

Happy Birthday to me from the Spanish performers!
