Hong Kong--Day 1

We made it to Hong Kong! On our plane we were 4 adults and 4 kids! Our friends we're on a plane ahead of us with 2 adults and 5 kids! In total we are sadly outnumbered 9 to 6!
For our first day we all booked a guided full day tour of Lantau Island. Bus ride to a ferry ride to a bus to a tram.....we saw it all! And had the most amazing vegetarian lunch I could have ever imagined. So good both kids devoured it!!
We stopped at a fishing village for a quick boat ride! True culture!! If it lives in the ocean, they take it and dry it for sale! 
The dried puffer fish made Abby sad! 
The day was gorgeous and we didn't have a drop of rain or a dark cloud! Love the puffy clouds!! So much color around here. 
We travelled to the other side of the island to see the giant bronze Buddha. 268 steps up! Here is or whole group! 
Of course the girls took in the incense every chance! 
Our tour ended with a team ride down the back side of the island
So lucky to get to travel with these awesome ladies. Navy life has its perks!
