The Cable Car Station
When we arrived at the cable car station this time I was relieved to see that they seemed to have replaced a lot of the structure. The cables stretched up the mountain fresh and strong, though still with that disconcerting curve to them. And there was a shine to the cars themselves that I really hoped wasn't just a fresh paint job. In some ways the first minute is the worst - but in those first few seconds you can see all the detail of the ground as it falls away from you. You feel every meter of that widening space of open air beneath your feet held at bay by a floor that seems... too thin.
