When we reached the building, I presented my pre-paid tickets at the ticket counter for them to activate it. We proceed to the promenade where we queue to ride. The queue was long but waiting time was short. It was to my surprised that it actually looked like you’re really boarding on a flight where you have to go through security checks.
After the check-points, we went one level up where the entrance was. The Flyer did not stop for you to hop on but it was on a slow speed when it arrived to pick up passengers. It was really cool and how it was operated. When we were in the capsule, I was indeed excited but after when it moved its way up, I got nervous. Me, who is afraid of heights was glued to my seat but enjoying the beautiful view. It was not long later when hubby was furious that I was sitting down instead of enjoying the view at the side… I was asked to stand and posed for pictures at the edge of the capsule. I felt my legs went jelly the moment I got up but got used to it for a while and I was all standing and taking pictures with my new camera.
Though the capsule was able to accommodate up to 28 persons but our group were small, there were only like 9 of us. It was actually a good number as it gave you space to move around and get views from all angles.
It was about 30 minutes ride and I thought it was like 30 days… coz’ it was slow and the fact was, I was still afraid of heights! Anyway, it was one great experience for us and well, I don’t think I will ride on it again till the casino is up in 2010.
See you then…
