We were standing in line and the car returns. They do not let us board, instead this guy jumps on to the top of the car with what looks like a motorcycle tire turned inside out. he went up to the tower for "Maintenance". Instills a lot of confidence....

Thanks for the help Yayow on posting to pics to the site the right way
You definitely got there on a clear day; makes all the difference in the world. Was the magician up top doing his thing?
He was the day I was there. Hitting the obvious tourist/gringos. My novia is Dominican so he didn't approch me. (less of a mark).
That magician was pretty good. DR cowboy you are right about about hitting on the gringos. Obvious gringo=me lol
Mr Happy is right. Best to be there just before the ticket office opens on a day when the mountain is free of mist to beat the queues and enjoy ida y vuelta with clear views.Quote:
