The MOA Eye Letdown + sushi + Science Museums

I'm normally fairly easy to please, but this just wasn't at all up to par with expectations:

Cost: 150 per head.  As people get off, they are quickly replaced by other people.  The wheel hardly ever stops.  It just keeps going around *very* slowly to allow the riders to switch.  You get off after one round.
View: Just OK.  Glass could use some cleaning.  The bottom part is not made of glass.
Privacy: None.  They're gonna make you sit with strangers if there are only 2 of you.  (Boo!)

Well at *least* the carriages are air-conditioned.  But I think even kids wouldn't find it *that* exciting.  The ferris wheel at Enchanted Kingdom is way better.  Although this is bigger, it sure didn't feel that way.

To make ourselves feel better, we stuffed ourselves silly at the Sakae Sushi buffet (not bad for 399).  Too bad they closed their branch at the Fort.

We had so much more fun at the Nido Fortified Science Discovery Center.
 
And we can't wait till The Mind Museum opens!

Do you still remember the Ripley's Believe it or Not Museum and Science Works! at Shangri-la Plaza Mall way back when?  :)  Too bad retail wins over science.  :(
