We had a long trip about 11.5 hours flight from Auckland to Hong Kong, only having about 3 hours sleep if that.
It is rather hot and humid ... so had to change into our summer clothing at the airport, before heading into the city via the wonderful Airport Express System.
We then changed lines on the MTR - these guys have got it sorted ... with the ability to transport 7 million people around this city so easily and even in the crowds of people transferring between MTR stations, it just all flows beautifully.
Joanne loves the travelators.
We found our cute wee hotel so just dropped our luggage and then headed back to Tung Chung to take the cable car trip up to see the Big Buddha ... wow that was amazing. We decided to take a 2 hour tour which included seeing: Tai O Fishing Village, Po Lin Monastery and finally walk up 260 steps to the top, so you are right in front of the big buddha. 
Did a spot of shopping at the Citygate Outlet stores, our selections back home are great.We are off to bed soon, as our feet are sore from all the walking and lack of sleep over the last 24 hours.
