London Eye
I went to see the London Eye yesterday as part of the attraction of the reunion.It has turned out to be a very popular tourist attraction. I saw a long line waiting to get on this "flight" as they call it. Maybe this is because it is owned by British Airways.
Some facts about the Eye:
Height 135m
(cf. Tokyo Tower 333m)
Weight 2,100 tonnes
Speed 0.26m/s
Time to revolve 30 min.
Number of capusles 32
Passengers per capsule 25
It stopped rotating several times while I was in the capusle for some unknown reasons.
The ticket price is £12.5 for an adult. £25 for Fast Track with which you can avoid the que. I paid £15 for Fast Track as we booked in advance as a group. It is still 3000 Yen and we are talking about outrageous London prices again!
