Hong Kong Pictures


Skyline of HK - I think Bruce might have a better picture.



This was on Sunday - it was much more clear than Saturday and a beautiful day outside.



Sunset atop Victoria Peak. It was beautiful - and not too cold either. I expected it to be chilly up at the Peak, but it was quite pleasant. We saw the view from the peak during the day and at night.


I did not realize how pretty HK was. I took this standing near the Big Buddha. Really cool.




This is the Big Buddha. It is literally this huge statue of Buddha in the hills. It is on Lantau Island, the same island where the airport it. We had to take a 1/2 hr ferry ride and then a 1/2 hr cab ride to get there. But the drive was beautiful - we took in the scenery and the nice warm breeze on our faces. Certainly not something we are accustomed to at this time of year.
