Big Buddha


Our next adventure was to head over the the Bid Buddha. We took the train over and then rode cable cars up to see the Big Buddha.  The cable car ride was majestic.  We were able to enjoy the sights and the kids loved being a detective...who could spot the Buddha first?







At the bottom of the staircase that leads up to the Buddha.  It was quite a trek to hike up the stairs but we all made it!





You can really see how enormous the statue is here when you compare it to size of the people.



Graham, Bryce and Layne did really well considering all the walking we had to do at the Buddha.  One day they will realize how lucky they are to experience such amazing places like the Buddha.  I had to wait 30 something years but my kids are doing it all before they are 10.  I just hope they can remember it all...at least we have pictures :).
