(Here should be some really cool pictures of everyone at the Montreal Airport yelling “Macau! Macau”. But I was too tired to take them.) Welcome to my most mundane blog post EV-er…
On March 23, 2008 the Cirque Du Soleil artists for “Macau I Cosmos” flew from Montreal, Canada to Hong Kong for relocation. Here’s an uneventful post about our initial relocation. The photos are with my old camera from the 1800’s, they are horrible, and none of them are the least bit interesting.

(Chinese TV report of Typhoon Level 8 “Neoguri” that hit Macau on April 20, 2008.
My first level 8 typhoon warning. Yipee! Reminds me of the hurricanes when I lived in Miami (hurricane parties are the best).
Friday, April 18 2008 – The Macau Meteorological and Geophysical Bureau (SMG) yesterday issued a tropical cyclone warning for typhoon ‘Neoguri’, the earliest period at which such warnings have ever been issued.

Video of the bungy jump at the Macau Tower in Macau (Macao SAR), China.
The Tower is 1,109 ft (338m) high at its highest point.
The Macau Tower bungy jump is 764 feet (233m).
To give my friends in Seattle an idea of how high this is – The Space Needle is 605 feet (184 m) high.
I’ve watched dozens of these jump videos on YouTube. Mainly because I’m not brave enough to do it myself – but I wish I was! My stomach turns just watching the videos.
Since I moved to Macau, China my MySpace page is now in Portuguese language. I might have clicked a wrong button or something – but I think it just came up that way and I didn’t see anyway to get it back to English.
Does someone know how to fix this, get it back to English?

Catch a glimpse of the Cotai Strip ® in Macau, which is described as Asia’s Las Vegas ® by the Las Vegas Sands Corporation – the same folks who trademarked the registered names behind this next big destination. It’s here that Sheldon Adelson’s Venetian Macau Resort will open in 2007 with 3000 rooms, Venetian-style canals and Chinese singing gondoliers.
