The BIG buddha, or Tian Tan Buddha (in Hong Kong)

Here we are with the boys in the taxi Asian style, no car seats. Note the passy on the lanyard, we have at least 1 passy MIA lost during a Babybjorn outing so this was Tyson's idea which worked great.


Here we are riding on the gondola, the ride alone was 20-25 min. We opted for the return trip. The picture below if you look real close you can see the stairs that are part of the trek. with kids, no thank you.The start of the 300 or so steps to the top of the Buddha. This Buddha was the largest in the world until just recently in 2007. At 34 meters and 250 tons and made of bronze this is quite amazing.
