I found it tucked in a corner of the Lisbon zoo. It's clearly old but still beautiful. I have no idea if it works, since it was closed and looked abandoned but it's really sad if it doesn't. I'll have to check it later, since both my kids really wanted a ride...
Delightful photos. As with you, I hope it still functions and gives children joy!

DeleteGorgeous carousal! I always liked riding the carousal as a kid at the annual traveling carnival that passed through our area. After we had children, we were in Myrtle Beach, SC for our son's 3rd birthday and the children & I took a ride on a vintage carousal. It was really cool! I love photographing these when I come across them, too. Unfortunately, it's really a rare find. Nice shots! Have a fototastic week!

DeleteThat old carousel is so beautiful! I can't ride them because they make me nauseated but they are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThat's too bad...though I haven't been on one since I was a kid, probably I would feel at least a bit dizzy now too...Thank you for stopping by!
DeleteOh my, what a beautiful carousel. The horses are painted so pretty! All my favorite colors.
ReplyDeleteI used to enjoy riding when I was a kid, I have not been close to one for may years.
Thanks for sharing, hope you have a great day!
