    Macau weekend trip - what date works for you?

    A couple of friends are looking to pop over to Macau for a cheeky weekend, possibly staying for a night at the Venetian. Thanks to KIA I'm in touch with one of the Geo members who could get us a special deal for the hotel rate.

    This coming weekend (24 / 25 October) has been suggested, but any other suggestions are welcome.

    So a cheap(ish) getaway, fuelled with yummy Macanese / Portugese food, cheap booze and extreme tackiness wheverever you look (so bad it's good...). Any takers?

    Seems like we can get a deal with the Venetian though am bit partial with the Four Seasons! I always think it makes more sense staying a night anyway, seeing that the hotels there cost an absolute fraction of what we're used to paying (HK / LDN), and there are so many restaurants / bars to hit - the last thing I wanna do is to get on a ferry ride after a massive meal and half a bottle of port!

    Let us know if you fancy hooking up!

    Oooh just got back from a stay at the venetian this weekend however another one is very tempting indeed especially if a deal is going on.

    The suites are lovely there too.

    if you do go to the Venetian, check out the Blue Frog bar, A good mate of mine is the manager there (GARY), I'll tell him to look out for the Geoexpat rowdy bunch and to take good care of ya lot.

    A catch-22 here, need to ascertain a rough number of people who might be up for it (and hence need to agree on a date) before the negotiation can begin....

    So can anyone help me with fixing the date???

    A great idea, but already planned a trip away for this weekend.

    Won't be free until November 8, but I generally don't plan things more than a week in advance (too lazy).

    The Venetian is great. The Four Seasons would be awesome - good to see that ScotchDrinker has good taste.
