Boarding of the capsule is done without stopping the wheel
There are even nets to catch disgruntled falling hordes!
They even have nice compass maps with can double for Kacump Puteh snacks as well!
So here we set off on our 50cm/second journey
they shut you in for the whole ride! (theres only door handles on the outside)
The capsule is filled up with about 15 people before...
I peek with my little eye
Here comes our capsule of death!
Courtesy of these Mitsubishi heavy duty torque motors (12 of them to be exact)
Here we are at the central boarding "hording" area
Crossing the "Aero" bridge over the Yakult moat
Then it's off to the Lollipop!
The last of the waiting areas where groups are dispatched in capsule groups
Act like you are on the flyer!
In you go for your Gr8 Moment!
The 2nd of the waiting areas for umm. pre-ride photos
You get to enter the wheel only by "aero bridge" which give it a cool "isolated feel"
I never got so interested in Ferris wheels before, but oh well just being the kids I was!
View of the capsules from the 2nd floor
Some of the long stretches to the queue area
Then you get to scan your card to enter the holding area
Standard security checks before entering
The Yakult garden, from the 2nd floor entrance
To get on the giant lollipop, you need tickets!
A view just as fine as art
Some bridging shots
Some nice shots of the wheel at the shopping area
Here we are at the Singapore Flyer!
