The big wheel was a nice landmark for navigating to my hotel. The color was soothing and changed every few minutes. I didn’t ride it, but think I could have tolerated the height in one of those big pods.

I’d like to mee the guy/gal who designs these things, and watch their process from start to finish…

The design process is probably very complicated. Although it might be merely feeding parameters into a computer. It is amazing what AI can do. Whoever and however, I just hope they get it right.

just seeing how they calculate how much reinforcement they need to support all the potential people on the ride at once would be fascinating to me!

I’m not sure which wheel is bigger. Of course Vegas likes to do everything over the top.

In the midst of the neon glitz of Vegas, the pink hue was very attractive.😊

This closely resembles the “London Eye”. The one in the UK is worth visiting. I’m guessing the Vegas version is also enjoyable.

I’ve yet to try either of them but would like to. I’d never get on a roller coasters on top of one of the casinos.
