Lantau Island

Won't be getting around to historic Macau pictures, though there is a good chance I will upload a lot more to facebook, so if you are on that you'll get a bigger glimpse of things. This is going to be a pretty picture heavy post as it is.

Went with a tour group to Lantau Island yesterday. If you are unfamiliar, Lantau is the home to the Big Buddha bronze statue as well as Po Lin Monastery. From Hong Kong you must take a 23 minute cable car over the hills to the destinatation. Because Lantau Island is protected from development by the Chinese government, the entire trip there is very scenic.
