The London Eye also called the Millennium Wheel is the gigantic Ferris Wheel by the Thames, in the very heart of London. The whole structure is cantilevered, so the wheel is held only from one side. Cabins hold up to 25 people, and take 30min to go aroud. Back in the time I was there, you could actually rent them for Birthday parties and the like! This involved you and your 24 guests, a buffet table, and no fear of heights whatsoever!
El "Ull de Londres" o la roda del mil.leni (London Eye) és la gengantina noria a la vora del Thames, al bell mig de Londres. L'estructura s'aguanta amb contrapesos, de manera que nomes un dels costats està collat a terra. A les càpsules hi caben fins a 26 persones, i triguen 30 minuts a donar una volta. Quan jo hi vaig ser, es podia llogar una cabina er cel.lebrar festes d'anniversari i similars: els teus 24 amics i tu, un bufet lliure, i gens de vertigen!
