Do you like carousels?
There is a Carousel Museum in Bristol, Museum. Let me show you some photos from the museum while I am away. (Though I might interrupt the series to show a travel photo if time permits . . . )

Carousels are one of the many things that fascinate me. There is something so joyful and youthful about them. There is a store in a small town in Minnesota where carousel animals are carved that is a magical place.
what an art.
All of a craft!
Such talent it takes to create one of these horses. I always love seeing the antique versions as well.
What an interesting place. Nice images.
There is a new carousel in a very unusual place aboard the world's largest cruise ship, Royal Caribbean's Allure of the Seas. I haven't seen it in person, but I've seen pictures of it. It's fantastic!
Indeed I do - like carousels, that is. Some fine craftsmanship goes into the carving.
Carousels have something to do with childhood and first great sensations!
I love carousels and I love horses! They are some of the sweetest memories from my childhood. So much talent and fine craftsmanship indeed! Marvelous post and photos for the day, Jack! Hope your trip is going well!

I love carousels - a museum about them sounds wonderful.
The age of the horse is beautiful.
That first shot is my favorite.
This reminds me that there is a place here where carrousel horses are carved. I've got to go see that guy. I love your series Jack.
