We took a cable car ride up to Ngong Ping 360 Village to take the 'Journey of Enlightenment' and see the worlds largest outdoor Buddha and Po Lin monastery. We also caught a Monkey Tales and Walk with Buddha show as well as a traditional tea ceremony.

Hong Kong is an insanely busy place that really never sleeps. We stayed at the Kimberly Hotel in the Kawloon district for three nights and ate tons of Asian cuisine for cheap cheap cheap. The first night we arrived we went and watched the Symphony of Lights show over the harbour and strolled along the Avenue of Stars which has a statue of Bruce Lee.

We spent our last few days in Australia back in Melbourne with Justin and Emma and all went out for Indian food on Saturday night. The next day was Emma's going away party for work so we all went for drinks at a pub and got ready for our flight to Hong Kong the next day. We thought we should take a picture of Millsie's Yute and of Hungry Jack's (The Aussie version of Burger King).

From Byron Bay we took a very sketchy train ride to Sydney that has turned both of us off from train travel. People were sleeping everywhere in the aisles and some drunk abo fell into our seat in the middle of the night. I managed to get up right before she proceeded to pee on the cushion where I had just been sitting. Horrifying or what?! Sydney is a beautiful city and we got to see all the major sights; The Sydney Harbour Bridge, Royal Botanic Gardens, Opera House. We took a ferry over to Manly Beach and Mike went to Oceanworld to catch a look at sharks, snakes and other creatures. We also went to The Cat and Fiddle Pub, which happens to be one of Mike's favorite bars in Vancouver. Our hostel, The Funk House, was situated right in King's Cross - the ghetto of Sydney. Prostitutes, drugs, bars, strip joints and cheap eateries scatter the streets in King's Cross, making for a pretty entertaining place just to walk around.
