BUDDHA’S IN THE MIST!

And no its not a sequel to a Sigourney Weaver film, but a day trip taken by two people on their last full day in HK on a mini world tour!

The Big Buddha is one of THE sights to see on Hong Kong – not to be missed.  However, even standing right under it we could barely see it!  Sods Law dictates that the day we go is a day shrouded in mist (see pics!).  A 5km cable car ride follwed by 238 steps up, then down, to the Big Man himself normally provides stunning views we were told.  But not today.  Not for us.  Oh No!  But hey, these are minor inconveniences compared to what Siddhartha Gautama – the man who became Buddha – encountered on his path to enlightenment.  So there!
