Monday we were off to the Big Buddha. Again, a very cloudy day, but at least it wasn't raining. We took the cable car up the mountain.
Adam layed on the glass bottom floor of the "Crystal Cabin".
We admired the Buddha from below.
Mom finally made it to the top of the stairs, but needed a bit of fanning after the climb.
We went to see the buddhist monestary.
And then it was time for tea!
High Tea was Mom's favorite activity in Hong Kong. Today we went to the Grand Hyatt, but she loved it so much we went to the Four Seasons two days later to experience it again.
After a very sophisticated afternoon, we went up to the Peak as the weather was clear.

It's Tuesday morning, and Adam's last day in Hong Kong. The weather has been grey all week, but we're off to Stanley for our last afternoon. Stanley is one of my favorite places, but it didn't look as pretty today as it usually does.
After Stanley, we went back to the tailor for another fitting, and then headed home to get cleaned up for the junk that evening. Every night in Hong Kong, about 25 buildings put on a light show from 8:00-8:15. Watching it from the water is amazing, and one of the highlights of the trip.

We said goodbye to Adam the next morning.
He had to get home for work, but we were all pretty bummed he couldn't join us in Thailand. We went home to pack.
Dudley was sad and didn't want us to go.
We went to tea that afternoon at the Four Seasons, and then we were off to Thailand!
See you in Sunny Phuket!
xx,
Lauren
