Big Buddha


This was exactly what it looks like; a big Buddha statue. This is on Lantau, the final island we went to, where the airport is. Actually, one of the more interesting parts of this day was the bus ride to get to the temple. It is situated really high up in the mountains, and we had to get a bus from the station. On the way there, we had a driver who appeared to think he was in Le Mans, and certainly not driving a bus. With a sheer drop on either side, careering along the little windey roads was quite entertaining (and Jane`s little squeals were certainly entertaining to the Chinese people in front of us!). Then on the way back we ended up being the on the last bus back, so the whole of the local building site workers filled up the rest of the bus, making it us, and about 45 sweaty men.
