#42: Ride the Ferris Wheel on the Santa Monica Pier

On a sticky hot Friday evening, I needed to be outside rather than inside the oven that is my house. With sweaty brows, Brad and I went out to the Santa Monica Pier.

We decided to try the ferris wheel, which is five bucks for a ride that will last about 8 minutes. Once we were at the top, nothing could beat the view, the romance, and the breeze.

The wheel runs till 12:30 am. It only goes around twice non stop, and then it makes stops to let people off. Nevertheless, it was a romantic and cool (literally) ride.

One of the best things about the wheel is that it's solar powered!
