This evening, an opportunity opened to me, and I took it with minimal hesitation.
Before this time, I've been on a Ferris wheel only twice--and both times were in Japan (
Kagoshima &
Nagasaki). Last time I was in Hong Kong, this wheel was closed. As I was making my way to the ferry (that'd
take me back to Discovery Bay), I saw the observation wheel. This time, I noticed it was running.
I was leaving in the morning. If I wanted to go, it was now or never. I had to check out the price, and that would determine if I'd buy a ticket.

| That blue light was other-worldly. |

| Cirque du Soleil was in town! Too bad I just found out. |
 |
| You noticed I like lines, right? |

| Victoria Harbour from the Observatory Wheel. Sorry for the lacking quality. |

| This was the best I could do. Sorry. |
 |
| After getting off. |
 |
| This thing is huge. |
 |
| Like, really huge. |
One really cool thing about this wheel: we got to ride it 3 times before we had to get off--and there was a pretty long line too!
Question: is this normal? The 2 previous wheels I've ridden only made 1 revolution. This one made 3. Was this one very generous or were the other ones very not generous?
