    An activity that lived up to our high expectations. We initially planned to just ride the Ferris wheel but after seeing the wonders of the park we spent the whole day there.

    This is the second time I buy this entry because I wanted to know what the views were like during the day and at night. While in the day you can see more detail, the night gives you a special magic.
