Lantau and Tung chung

not really a good time to pay a visit to the Po Lin Monastery aka the BIG buddha this time of the year.

Visibility is really bad and the weather is freezing cold.

Luckily, the fog cleared in the afternoon and I am able to take several clearer pictures.. On the whole, No good for pictures .. no blue sky. On the hand, monochrome pictures might appear to be good.

Forget abt taking the cable car. Literally u are surrounded by clouds, ain't gonna see anything but clouds.

Bus 23 from Tung Chung will bring u to Lantau for just a fraction of the cable car fee.. 16 HKD if u are using Octopus. Cable cars... single trip will be 58 and return tkts is 88.

Tung chung has an ass-kicking shopping mall, dominantly infested by many "factory outlets"..... do not be fooled by the signboards... look carefully at those which says FACTORY OUTLETS like NIKE.. others omitted the word FACTORY coz they are not selling those cheapo stuffs that u might want to have.

The pacific coffee in Tung Chung is a very ideal resting corner. Very good services. Perhaps i am lucky that no one seems to be interested in using the internet and therefore i shamelessly hogged it for a good 30 mins.

will write more... as for pics.. will do that later when I am back in town
