We decided to make another trip down to Hong Kong for a weekend. Landon went on a foreign exchange program in high school to Hong Kong for a year. He planned the whole trip ahead of time and we had a blast. We stayed at Landon’s host brother’s home and caught up with a lot of Landon’s old friends and host families.
We left on China’s National Holiday, October 1st, we were able to go to a firework show down in Hong Kong. None of the pictures really came out, but here is one.
The next day we woke up early and had breakfast with one of his host father and mother, then headed to look at pink dolphins. Sadly we didn’t get to see any, but still enjoyed the little boat ride as well as the wandering around the area.
While wandering around the area we came across a street with a lot of these houses made out of metal and they were so short and very interesting.
We then took a bus up to the Big Buddha and came across a temple. The dragons are good luck and everyone rubs them for good luck. You can tell where they rub them.
On our way up to the Big Buddha and the view from the top
I wished I would have taken more pictures and I am sure that I was in control of the camera and that is why there isn’t much, but we took the sky cart all the way back.
It was a very packed weekend with little down time. It was a lot of fun, but I was ready to go back home.

Fireworks pictures never turn out - unless you have a good camera and know how to use it (which I don't). Hope you're having a great "Honeymoon"...looks like it's packed with lots of sightseeing. Fun, fun.. Love you and miss you.
