Few shots of the Submariner at the Tian Tan Buddha...

Took the cable car up into the mountains at Lantau Island to go see the big Buddha with my cousin who's visiting Hong Kong on leave from the Canadian Air Force in Dubai...Hadn't seen him in almost 5 years!


Loooong way down..



Really nice weather today..



Time to go see Buddha..



There he is, at the top of ALL THOSE STAIRS..


Buddha


This weekend we'll hit the casinos in Macau and celebrate with some Champagne
