Queen Bee Rides the Ferris Wheel

I came across these pictures from the fall and thought I should share them.  Honey and Bumble convinced me to ride the Ferris Wheel with them at Hershey Park.  This was my first time on this big wheel.  Keep in mind, I am not a big fan of rides.  Upon gazing at the ride from the ground it appeared to be a slow moving, relaxing ride.  The first thing I noticed is when we sat down in our basket it swayed.  A lot.  Can you believe no one strapped us in?  There wasn't even straps for us to strap ourselves in.  The kiddie rides at Hershey Park all have straps.  How come the Ferris Wheel does not?  I have to strap my children in a car that stays on the ground but if my child dangles hundreds of feet in the air apparently no straps are needed! Here is strapless Bumble.  She is as happy as can be.
 
 
Here is Stinger and me.  I am holding on to him for dear life. I will admit I screamed not once but many times. Bumble laughed at me. So did Honey!
 
 
Here was the view.
 

                                  I love the caution sign: Do not sit on step.  Why ever not?!



Oh Ferris Wheel, your slow moving motion is quite deceiving.  I don't think I "wheel" be riding you again!
