Macau Day - Day 5

We had a very early start this morning in order to catch the first ferry to Macau. As such, we woke up at 5am and headed to MacDonalds for breakfast as it was probably the only food outlet that was open at such an hour. The cheesy sausage macaroni was one of the more interesting items on the breakfast menu, and the steaming hot dish was a great way to start a day where temperatures were hovering at 16 degrees Celsius. The macaroni was well cooked and the melted cheese added an interesting flavour to the otherwise bland tasting soup. After a filling breakfast, we trudged out in the cold again and caught the first trip of service 3C to China Ferry Terminal.

The day sailing is significantly cheaper than the evening sailings (departure time after 1700hrs). We had bought the return ferry ticket on Turbojet in advance on Day 2 as economy class tickets on the evening sailings are often sold out on the day itself.

In addition, drinks and snacks are also available for purchase on board, but most of the passengers (us included) took the opportunity for a much needed nap during the journey instead. We boarded a Hino HT2ML CL on TCM service 10 from the Ferry Terminal to Barra Terminal. TCM's Hino HT2ML CL are fitted with integral Hino Blue Ribbon bodywork and also retains the original Japanese style bench seats as seen in this photo. The exits of Japanese buses are often very much wider than the entrances...
