Back in Hong Kong

We arranged with the hotel to take a bus back to Hong Kong. The scene was mainly industrial but we were still enthralled and we want to go back a explore some more and go further into the wonderful country. After crossing the border in a small fan and being dropped off at the airport we finally found the bus to take us back to Lynda's. The next morning we were up and ready for breakfast and off to find the bus to Tai-O village. We went to 3 bus terminal places till we found the right one and lined up with the locals. People were going going onto the bus and then they stopped so we assumed the bus was full. The people in front of us parted and were calling us to go through and onto the bus. The bus ride was interesting going up and down valleys and getting glimpses of the sea. Then we were at the village and wandering though the market discovering all sorts of interesting things for sale.Dried whole fish, dried eggs and many other fascinating stuff. Finally we wandered down past there homes and through some trees where we saw what we thought were butterflies flying only to find that they were cicadas. They were huge!
Along another track we found this lady spreading and turning over this pink paste of shrimps.
It was such a picturesque little fishing village.
And then it was off to see the big Buddha on the hill and we were in awe of this big guy. The first view was like 'wow'...and each view afterwards was like that too.
Being advised to take the Gondola down was one of the best things we did. We queued up and bought our ticket and paid a few extra dollars to have a ride in glass bottomed car. Was worth the extra dollars not to wait for over 45 minutes.
The view was awesome. We were back into Tung Chung and thought we would take a look at Disneyland to see if it was open at night time but alas no it wasn't so we made do with the photo below.
The next morning we went caught a bus to The Peak and were amazed at the view...even though it was smoggy it was incredible. The bus ride up was interesting, going through narrow streets and winding up the hill. We caught the tram down and found our way to take a ferry across to meet up with Lester and Karen who are teaching in Hong Kong.

Then the next day it was time to fly home to Singapore that evening. There was a big question on what to do for the day...so we decided to be kids and to go to Disneyland...it was fun, doing the rides...and I even did a scary one! Well it was scary to me! Ny stomach was not right for at least 20 minutes after the ride.
On the Disneyland train.
Holding the world up at Tomorrowland.
Watch out Buzz...we on our way!
This was the ride I didn't like...felt like I was going to fall out of the car. thankfully it was only a short ride. Hong Kong Disneyland was small but it made me want to go to the big in LA....dreams do happen! I know!
