Our family completed reading the Book of Mormon so for a reward we went downtown to ride the High Roller. But first, we stopped to watch a street skateboarding contest.
Then we went over to Container Park. Matt has been trying to get me to go but I've been reluctant. It sounded lame, but it is not. This praying mantis breathes fire and scares the crap out of anyone nearby. Good times.
We have been to the LINQ multiple times and finally pulled the trigger on riding the high roller. We had a pretty big group with us but they wouldn't let us ride in our own pod. I felt bad for the others with us because we were a little unruly. When we reached the highest point (535 ft) these crazies dropped and did push ups. 535 of them. Ha, maybe 5. 35 of them.
Ben had a Titanic moment.
I don't love heights so I was a little nervous about being in the World's Largest Ferris Wheel. But it moves slowly and is so huge that it was kind of relaxing and definitely fun to look out over the strip at night.
