Kamikaze - the Bomber

As most people celebrated Labor Day with rallies and demonstrations in different parts of the world last Friday...

We, the "bagong bayani" (OFW) from Dubai welcomes this day with self-pampering activities. After a whole day of shopping at the Dubai Outlet Mall, we went to DFC (Dubai Festival Center) for our dinner and to add some thrill to our not so very expensive lifestyle.

there is Fun Fair Festival at the corniche of DFC...
and these lights are too attractive to resists.

the mini - carnival just reminded us of the PERYA back home. it has couple of rides for kids, young adults and the young at hearts, just like us...
- for kiddos -
amusement games and adorable prizes


as we were walking, temptations and challenges begun...
token booths are everywhere! dare is in the air!!!


as lovely as these lights are the rides for the young adults...
as we were walking around, our hearts keeps on pounding!!!
excited looking for the biggest challenge that we will face!
.
.
.
these next rides are just for - young adults...

NOT for us!!!
and so, we went on...
walking... checking...
and whhhhooooooowwwwwwww!!!
somebody just said, this is it! lets all ride in there!

the BOMBER!
it's as tall as a building... seats are just on opposite ends.
.
.
.
honestly, my hearts beats faster... i suddenly feel cold and freezing.
my feet sweat and so with my hands...
.
"uhhhmmm... im still nervous, i dont think i can do it!"
.
"we just had dinner... we might throw up!"
.
"its not safe... its not covered!!!"
.
"OMG... i can pay your salary double.. just dont ask me... i'll pay for your token!"
.
"NOOOO! this is it! lets go...."
.
.
those are the words i heard after watching how the BOMBER works...
.
.
.
"hmmm... can we first have a warm up???"
.
.
.
OK... warm up!
.
.
.
there in KAMIKAZE!!!
.
.
.
.
.
this is just a mini Bomber!

smaller version... just half of the height of the bomber..
and you are in a lot safer, since the seats are inside a "cage"
but...
it works just as the same as the Bomber...
it swings... until you turned upside down!!!

and while you are UP, it will suddenly stop...
so you can enjoy the view from the top!


and yes, that was indeed a good WARM UP!!!

and after that... we were all screwed up!
