I'm not really claustrophobic, but I felt trapped on the London Eye, and that was for half an hour. This would be worse.

I might (I say might) enjoy the view, at least of the stars, but I'd never get there. And I'd want a solid floor.

I remember seeing someone posting either here or on TA who was going to stay there...no thank you! I could barely walk down some parts of the Inca Trail around Pisac and Machu Picchu.

Good point Scarlett.

Also, if like me, you do suffer from vertigo, do NOT watch the video showing how one gets up to the cabins!!

Haha. Guess I will have to visit without Mr. Crosscheck (who had to be helped down from one of the smaller structures at Angkor Wat because of vertigo).
