It was about 8pm and we decided to see the city from up top of the city. We were warned the we would be standing in line, we were pleasantly surprised. The line was only about a thirty minute wait...so we thought! We bought our tickets and headed to the elevator. We were do excited to get up there. Then...then we got off and stood in another line for a picture to be taken. We knew we were not interested in the picture but could not forgo the line. Finally, 45 minutes later, we were up top. The view is amazing. There were many people up top, but, every one was kind. The view is spectacular. Worth the money, approx. $16.00. The lights of the city are incredible! If only they could get rid of the lines for the pics....We had to stand in line coming back down to view the picture we knew we didn't want!!!
