Ferris Wheel (or 15 minutes of fear)


Scary Ferris Wheel
One hundred and twelve point five
high above the ground

When we came out of the aquarium, it was dark and Jason had already expressed an interest in taking a trip on the ferris wheel. I was less inclined to go on, but as it was only a 15 minute ride, I thought I'd give it a go.

Well it wasn't long started before I realised that I was terrified. It was the ascent that was the worst part. I couldn't actually look down or up, I could only look out to the distance.

I felt slightly better on the way back down but it wasn't until I got back near the ground that I started feeling normal again. Not to be repeated. Jason got a nice photo of the Osaka skyline (I couldn't get my camera out because I was gripping the inside of the cabin too tightly) and I did get a glimpse over at Universal Studios which is down on the other side of the bay.
