Hong Kong Day 1

We went shopping at a mall by the train station.   

Then we took a gondola up to Ngong Ping, a tourist area with one of the largest Buddha statues in the world.  Apparently this is a really gorgeous ride over the hills - we mostly saw the fog.  It was still a nice ride.  

We found Darth Maul! 

We climbed those stairs.  All of them.  

I loved these hats on the cleaning staff.  

Cows.  In the grass.  In the village.  Sacred maybe?

Afer Ngong Ping we took the midlevel escalators and found a restaurant for lunch.  The midlevel escalators are outdoor escalators that go uphill for a long ways.  Ryan took them all the way to the top one time with some coworkers, and just found apartments at the top.  

We saw this cool boat white we were on the ferry on our way back to our hotel.  I think it's in an ad for an investment company or something.
