Trisha, LOL, the Outback is a big place. The Fast Forward in the first half of the show, I forgot to specify since it was a two hour one, was the largest sitting Buddha. It is at the top of the Po Lin Monestary, Lantau Island, Hong Kong. I climbed the 265 steps and as I was huffing and puffing, I knew I had a good spot for a VC. The URL is http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.asp?ID=9499 and the waypoint is GC251B. An fan of Kung Fu movies will probably recognize the compound since many have been filmed here.
