A travel blog entry from Hong Kong by tiffanytaskerOn wednesday Grandma and I chugged across the water on the star ferry to Hong Kong island and from there took the MTR (tube) to Lantau island. We took the cable car up over the water and over the mountainside to get to Ngong Ping, the location of the biggest outdoor statue of a Buddha IN THE WORLD. I think Hong Kong definitely has size issues - ...
A travel blog entry from Hong Kong by tiffanytaskerDisneyland Hong Kong was amazing.
