Merry Go Round Horses
Taken in Avignon, France.
It seems like Merry Go Rounds are very popular in France as saw them in several places we visited. This one was in the public square in Avignon. Unlike most I remember from my youth, it doesn't appear that the horses go up and down although they probably bounce a bit on the spring like devices holding them up. Another difference is that this one had an upper tier of horses above this one. A third difference is that they frequently seemed to be alone in public squares rather than in amusement parks as they often are in the states.
