I left home at 6am and took the Toei Asakusa Line to Haneda Airport. I didn't forget to bring my Frank Miura, and it's still ticking away in Macau. This time I'm on ANA, but I'm eating at Yoshinoya.

It was the first day of a three-day weekend, but the plane was about 70% full. This flight is always full on the first day of a holiday, but the impact of the demonstrations seems to be significant.

ANA flight NH859 from Haneda to Hong Kong left the parking lot at 8:46am (scheduled time 8:50am), took off at 9:16am, and arrived at Hong Kong International Airport at 11:47am local time after a flight time of 3 hours and 31 minutes. I usually don't watch in-flight movies on this flight because I'm sleepy, but this time I watched "Kodoku no Gurume" (a horse mackerel fry set meal from Futtsu City, Chiba Prefecture), a collection of famous scenes from Pacific League TV, and Aibou (one episode of a TV drama) in succession. I slept for about an hour.

At the entrance to Hong Kong Airport, there was a policeman at the airport, and it was an operation to check the passports of the entrants.

After that,

12:35 Boarded B4 bus (6HKD)

12:44 Arrived Hong Kong Port

12:57 Boarded Qiao bus (65HKD)

13:38 Arrived Busta Macau

14:20 Boarded 101X bus (4MOP *for Macau Tong)

14:42 Arrived at Kayakong bus stop (closest to Caravel Hotel)

And so on. The city bus from Busta Macau got even more crowded, and it took 42 minutes from the arrival of Qiao bus to boarding the 101X bus. This is the only problem with using Qiao bus.

This is my fourth consecutive visit to Caravel Hotel. Room 101. You can sleep well in the inner harbor.

At night, the sound of mahjong tiles echoes from outside, a Buddhist altar illuminated by red lamps can be seen, and a faint fragrance drifts through the air; this is the atmosphere of old Hong Kong and Macau.

I woke up early and am sleepy. I sleep in until about 7pm, eat wonton rao noodle (40MOP) at the nearby Wong Chi Kee main store, charge my Macau Tong card at Circle K, and enter the Jyul Lao Pub. I exchange 10,000HKD for chips at an empty baccarat table, and then 1,000HKD for the baccarat P next to it. I win instantly with a natural 9. The jinx of a losing expedition on the first throw crossed my mind for a moment, but I start betting at a higher pace than usual to counteract the jinx.
