Ngon Ping Cable Car ride, Hong Kong

It was such a nice sunny day though a bit hazy. My friends and I brought our friend from Paris to try this cable car to Ngon Ping from Tung Chung. Unexpectedly, it was not so crowded. Everything was smooth and we enjoyed it very much.
1/2: about to board the cable car. Good that there are only around 20 people in the line; so we just waited for 5 minutes to have a separate car for all 5 of us. Then the right photo is where we took off to the Chek Lap Kok Island (Airport now).
3: Don't you think it's breath taking view?
4. Tung Chung
5: Another view to the Airport
6: Dragon Air (KA) climbing up
7/8: If you can't stand this high altitude, then chat with your ride-mates... :)
9: ok, we were stuck in the airport for about 2 minutes. Another technical stop?
10: about to arrive at Ngon Ping - the big buddha on the far left.
11/12: Ngon Ping Village Market
13: a "tourist type" Chinese tea house
14: I kind of like this photo - a tree behind Buddha

You are so lucky. No need to hang in the air. My friends told me it was shaking a lot last time when it was windy. See the big sea below and no tower to hold the cable. Looks scary.
