Laura and I jumped in the car and headed over to Neihu for a dinner at Friday’s and a ride on the Ferris wheel.  The Ferris wheel takes about 17 minutes to make one trip around and reaches a height of about 350ft at its highest point.  The view of Taipei from the wheel at night is outstanding; giving you a clear view of Taipei 101, the domestic airport and the rest of Taipei.

Standing at street level looking up at the Ferris wheel.

I really love being up high like this, just like my friend Catherine. 

Having fun at 350 feet.

My directions aren’t great, but I think this is looking east toward Taipei 101.
