You could export the chrome bookmarks (as an html file) from your macbook, move the html file over to your new macbook pro, and import that html file into chrome there.


In chrome, Bookmarks menu, select Bookmark Manager. A new tab will open with all your bookmarks.


Near the top of the bookmarks list is a toolbar that says "Bookmark Manager" and "Organize". Left click the "Organize" and a menu will come up under it where the last two items are for exporting and importing. Use them to create (export) the bookmark html file and to import that file on your new machine.
