A week ago, I’d have thought that Singapore was hot and humid. After getting lost in the sweltering heat and humidity of first, Macau, then Hong Kong with all my belongings and unicycle in tow, attired very suitably in black skinny jeans, I’ve learnt my lesson well.
Wednesday
9pm – 1am: Flight to Macau.
Thursday
1-7am: Night spent at the airport as fellow hobo passer-bys grin at me as I drift in and out of sleep.
7-12pm: Unicycled aimlessly, covering the ENTIRE Macau island, belongings in tow.
12-2pm: Took a ferry to Hong Kong
2-4.30pm: Got lost while unicycling across highways and hills to the Rambler Oasis hotel. Maps deceive.
5pm: My first meal of the day.
11pm: Bedtime
Friday
9am: Left the godforsaken hotel.
11am: Reached the Tsim Sha Tsui YMCA hotel. OMG BATH.
12-6pm: Tailored shirt, took ferry to Cheung Chau. Discovered promptly that this might have been a good time to bring the damn unicycle (Hint: Cheung Chau translates to Long Island and public transportation hasn’t been thought of yet).
7pm: Returned to hotel for royal scrubdown.
9pm: Left hotel for some stand up comedy.
1am: Returned to hotel for another scrubdown.
Saturday
7am: Breakfast
8-3pm: UNICYCLE HOCKEY
3-5pm: Wandered the streets a bit

1-4pm: Took a ferry to Macau and made my way to the Venetian
5pm: Caught Cirque du Soleil, yes, luggage in tow.
8pm: Checked in Grand Taipa Square hotel finally.
8.30 – 11pm: Wandered to town, had dinner, wandered back. Fell asleep in the midst of watching Vin Diesel act SNAG in The Pacifier. Boring.
Mondaaay
7-11am: Wandered around town more. Hot, hot, hot.
1-2pm: Checkout then got lost trying to unicycle to the Venetian to drop off my luggage because there’s a baggage deposit point for compulsive gamblers. Heehee.
3-6pm: Wandered my way first to the Westin resort, got lost and took a cab to Coloane Village. Found out the place smells of fish. And it’s hot.
7-9pm: Headed back to the Venetian for an expensive McDonald’s meal. Took a bus to the airport thereafter.
