Galloping horses and Cockerels on a steam-powered merry-go-round

All the fun of the carousel in Piazza della Repubblica, Florence – but I must admit we had our eye on all the fun of the cocktail bar just a few steps further on. And it wasn’t too long before we rested our aching feet there. Interesting, isn’t it, how just a single glass of ice-cold pinot refreshes the feet…
A carousel: from French carrousel and Italian carosello), roundabout (British English), or merry-go-round, is an amusement ride consisting of a rotating circular platform with seats for riders. The "seats" are traditionally in the form of rows of wooden horses or other animals mounted on posts, many of which are moved up and down by gears to simulate galloping, to the accompaniment of looped circus music. This leads to one of the alternative American names, the galloper.
Designed and built in 1916 by Charles I.D. Looff, and faithfully restored in 1981 through 1984, The Looff Hippodrome carousel building at the Santa Monica Pier is listed as a National Historic Landmark.
a funny title, because there is a bar in Austin by that name with no sign of a carousel. ;-)

There's something sad about Carousel ponies when there are no children sitting on them . . . These Carousel ponies were taken at the Balboa Fun Zone in Newport Beach, CA.
... does anything make you feel like a child as instantly as just a glance at a carousel? This one is located in Central Park. It was crowded at the entrance, so I just had to work my way into a spot where I could capture a few pictures. I like being able to see a portion of the inside of the building that houses the carousel.
