So today we took a ferry out to Lantau Island. There we got on this wild bus ride on these winding roads at incredibly steep grades. Our destination was the Po Lin Monastery. Here you may see the Tian Tan Buddha. This is the largest, seated, uncovered, buddha in the world. If you take any one of those descriptors away, you have like a buddha that's 10th on any list. So here is what the Buddha is supposed to look like.
And here's what it looked like today......
We all had a great time. Needless to say we couldn't see crap. All in all, a fun but cloudy day.
