Horvath Family Visit

My parents arrived in February for a week long visit.  Fortunately they had spent the week prior in Vietnam, so they were already fairly adjusted to the time change.  

Our pirate ship awaits...we took a tour of Victoria Harbour on this Aqua Luna Junk boat!

Cruising the harbour with cocktails...

View of Victoria Harbour from the Peak on a clear day (somewhat of a rarity spring time in HK!)

Grandma & Grandpa Horvath at the Peak

The youngest US weekly subscriber...

Standing in front of the harbour in Kowloon...

Kowloon side...looking out on Hong Kong Island.  Fun fact:  the tallest building in the distance is the IFC building, which was used in the Batman movie, The Dark Knight.  It's the 7th tallest building in the world.  

Hiking in Tai Tam Country Park, overlooking the reservoir.

Visiting the Big Buddha on Lantau Island.

A view of the Big Buddha in the distance from the Po Lin monastery...

Inside one of the temples in the Po Lin monastery...

Our last night with our visitors...hopefully they'll be back soon!

Half a year old!

It's hard to believe that Tyler is 6 months old already!  So much has changed in our lives in such a short time span, and the days have just flown by.  Our little pork chop weighs in at nearly 20 pounds, is eating solids, sitting up on his own, and scooting all around the apartment (albeit backwards!)    

As you can see below, Tyler hasn't missed a meal!
