Here comes our capsule of death!
I peek with my little eye
The capsule is filled up with about 15 people before...
they shut you in for the whole ride! (theres only door handles on the outside)
So here we set off on our 50cm/second journey
They even have nice compass maps with can double for Kacump Puteh snacks as well!
There are even nets to catch disgruntled falling hordes!
Boarding of the capsule is done without stopping the wheel
More of the little circle thingy which make big circle thingy go round
And everyone's all comfy for the ride, we get air conditioning and 2 entertainment screens!
And we are still just leaving the station!
Finally some things to see!
And that's how it looks like on the back
Rawwr I am angry capsule on your tail...
Here we spot a UFO calling spire
Presumably rigged to our capsule roof top compass as well
The first highlight the Singapore GP Pit and starting Grid
On the rear we have Temasek boulevard in the background
And the sun is setting!
Capsules are enclosed so no kids can fall off hidden holes!
Nice view
About 10 minutes and we are 1/3 into the revolution
The night is approaching and we are still climbing up!
The wheel lights are on past 7pm
It still looks like day on the east side
Everyone rushed for seats at the start, 5 minutes later, no one was on them!
Back to the city view (west)
Here we are at the top of the revolution
And down we go!
As it gets darker, the blue glow in the capsule becomes more noticable
Photogenic moment of the transforming marina bay
Oh so that's where we came from!
Rawewr me angry capsule still on your tail!
A shot of the Skyline with The Sheares bridge lit
The ride ends and it's all dark already!
Out of the capsule here we go!
The place looks rather spacey-porty at night
Side rails ensure no angry hordes meet trampoline net
Across the exit aero bridge to...
More $$$ spent!
Here you get to see your green screen photos you've taken pre-ride, costs $12-$20
And here we are at the VIP room!
