The Orlando Eye Lights Illuminate the I-Drive 360 Area

After turning on the huge switch, the huge observation wheel started to slowly turn clockwise, and the thousands of lights installed on the outer ring started to illuminate the wheel, little by little. The final product is absolutely outstanding... and we only saw one color scheme (more are coming soon)! Take a look:

The Orlando Eye is definitely beautiful also during the day:
