Happy International Ferris Wheel Day!

If Valentine's Day isn't your thing, we've got an alternative—International Ferris Wheel Day.

Vienna has one of the earliest Ferris wheels, the Riesenrad (giand wheel). It was built in 1897 to celebrate Emperor Franz Josef I's golden jubilee. It's become one of Vienna's most popular attractions and has appeared in several films such as The Third Man and The Living Daylights.

So, to you and yours we wish a very happy Ferris Wheel Day!
