We are sightseeing in Odaiba, and this is a great way to see the view. We' like to share our cabin with actors Yuji Oda and Tatsuya Kamikawa.

We choose the Odaiba Ferris wheel because it's famous. We like big wheels because we can relax while enjoying the great view. We'd like to ride with Dreams Come True, so they could sing for us.

NICK GEORGE/CREATIVE KIND OF GUY
I'm riding the wheel in Yokohama because like most creative people, I get my best ideas when I'm high. I like them because they give a humble person, such as myself, the rare opportunity to look down on people. I'd like to take Bruce Willis as my companion so I could see the look on his face when I pushed him out the door (Die Hard your way out of that slaphead!). Or J.K Rowling so she could tell me the synopsis of the next Harry Potter book. I'd keep it to myself smugly.

Take to the skies with a spin in one of the cities big wheels. A favorite date spot for rubu-rubu couples, Ferris wheels are the perfect way to relax and watch the world go round. We got the lowdown on what makes your spinning tops and who you'd like to take a turn with.

We came to the wheel in Cosmoworld Yokohama to see the night view. We like them because of the great views and because time seems to move slower when you ride. We'd like B'z and Spitz to join us so they could provide some music.

We decided to ride the one in Yokohama today because the weather is nice, and we've never been on such a big wheel. (Marcus) I like Ferris wheels because I used to build them-and roller coasters . (Masumi) I'd like to ride with Marcus' grandparents because they've never seen such a view . I'd like to take my friend's child. She's only two, and she'd love the experience.
