The Wheel


Brisbane River and the Treasury Building
South Bank Park
We were in Brisbane for the day to antique shop, sight-see  lunch and ride The Wheel.  The Wheel is a giant observation Ferris wheel that gives a 360 degree view of Brisbane.  It is located in a huge downtown city park.  There were lots of activities going on in the park including a market on weekends, swimming, sun bathing, music and plenty of eating choices.  The Wheel was fun.  It is 60 meters high.  We were told that the one in London is 120 meters high.  The ride was scary when we got to the top so I can imagine that the London Wheel would be twice the thrill.
