Ok, That is all folks! Remember to check out my article on the flyer itself!
The night experience is just as unique as the day, or you can experience both like me!
Some miscellaneous shots of the wheel at night, it rotates colour gradually
And here we are at the VIP room!
Here you get to see your green screen photos you've taken pre-ride, costs $12-$20
More $$$ spent!
Across the exit aero bridge to...
Side rails ensure no angry hordes meet trampoline net
The place looks rather spacey-porty at night
Out of the capsule here we go!
The ride ends and it's all dark already!
A shot of the Skyline with The Sheares bridge lit
Rawewr me angry capsule still on your tail!
Oh so that's where we came from!
Photogenic moment of the transforming marina bay
As it gets darker, the blue glow in the capsule becomes more noticable
And down we go!
Here we are at the top of the revolution
Back to the city view (west)
Everyone rushed for seats at the start, 5 minutes later, no one was on them!
It still looks like day on the east side
The wheel lights are on past 7pm
The night is approaching and we are still climbing up!
About 10 minutes and we are 1/3 into the revolution
Nice view
Capsules are enclosed so no kids can fall off hidden holes!
And the sun is setting!
On the rear we have Temasek boulevard in the background
The first highlight the Singapore GP Pit and starting Grid
Presumably rigged to our capsule roof top compass as well
Here we spot a UFO calling spire
Rawwr I am angry capsule on your tail...
And that's how it looks like on the back
Finally some things to see!
And we are still just leaving the station!
And everyone's all comfy for the ride, we get air conditioning and 2 entertainment screens!
More of the little circle thingy which make big circle thingy go round
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!
