Friday the thirteenth in Macau. Spookiest thing so far today? It's 19 deg outside. Could winter weather finally be here?
Wednesday Claire and I moved into our new apartment.
No. 2 Rua De Inacio Baptista
1 Andar D
Macau
I think it has a nice ring to it. We moved from the longest address I'd ever had to the shortest. The apartment is awesome. Better than our old place in every way. It's open and airy. We get a ton of sunlight all day long. The windows across the front of our apartment look out at St. Lawrence Church (Igreja do Sao Lorenzo). It's a beautiful, old church painted cream and white and surrounded by a garden of palm trees. What a great view and below it is a small traffic triangle that's always in movement as people go about their days. Our stuff is basically all put away and organized, we've spent two nights here, and it's feeling like home. We've taken a few walks down the street to the produce vendors. It's a two minute walk to the freshest fruits and vegetables on the peninsula. Plus any weird (read-> local) meats you need. Yesterday was Claire's first try at the new commute to work. It didn't go exactly according to plan, but today it's on. We're feeling right at home.
On another note, last night was ZAIA's 500th performance! Good work everybody! To celebrate the event, Guy Laliberte, the head honcho of Cirque, was in town for the performance. Not as tall as I expected. Nice guy though. He didn't give us any answers about the future of the show like everyone was hoping. It's OK though. As much as everybody wanted answers, no one was really expecting him to lay it all out on the table. We just have to keep on keepin' on. And fill out the occasional job application when there's something out there that we're qualified for.
