Comments on: Eureka Skydeck is a disappointment http://blog.adonline.id.au/eureka-skydeck/ Adam Dimech's blog Tue, 24 Jan 2012 06:28:07 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: hana http://blog.adonline.id.au/eureka-skydeck/comment-page-1/#comment-5967 hana Mon, 28 Nov 2011 10:09:55 +0000 http://blog.adonline.id.au/eureka-skydeck/#comment-5967 Thanks for publishing your article. I must say the eureka is a bit boring. I went to the skydeck last week and my tummy was turning before we even got in the building. The lift wasn't so bad but it did make me feel a little nervous not having going in a lift that goes up 9m per seconds like they do in southland!We got there and the binoculars not having to move was a bit annoying and got a few of my friends' nerves. The mesh was quite frustrating for some of the group. Though i forgot my camera and my phone was out of battery so i wouldn't have got a photo anyway.There are window cleaners (wouldn't deny that it would be a scary job)that do clean of the speckles of dirt at least three times a week. Perhaps you were there when they hadn't cleaned them in the last two days or so. There are now tables and chairs. The sliding doors are quite ok. Although you can only use one at a time. We had fun locking the other kids outside though!! LOL! Any who. I think Eureka has it's ups and downs. But it was built ages ago and propably isn't affordable for a new renovation*(*i think that is how you spell it...) I think it was ok. I nice place if you want to know what the entire city looks like when you're basically at the top of it. A good visit won't hurt. (though prices do come with it :C) Thanks for the report. PLEASE REPLY BACK TO THIS COMMENT!! ;D Thanks for publishing your article. I must say the eureka is a bit boring.

Didn't have a problem and there was no glare and it was enjoyable. The sky deck is worth the $12 and I recommend going to it.
