Closing my eyes and remembering taking this picture of the lovely carousel in Paris! It was so enchanting, oh wait,I can hear the music too!. Enjoy....
p.s. this was taken outside of the Hotel de Ville, "city hall " on Rue de Rivoli. There was a majestic ceremony of men in uniforms on horseback in the background of the carousel.

How Gorgeous! I love all the detail on Carousels And that silly music! The smell of popcorn!Can't wait for the warmer weather,I think I will take a ride this year on one!
Ooooh, lovely! I used to live there. I miss it so. Is this the one by the Eiffel tower or the one over by Montmartre?
Definitely Gorgeous!! I always loved the carousels. My favorite memory was at Lincoln Park on the carousel with my cousin once a year treat.
Now I recognize it! BTW, it's still the Hotel de Ville -- that means "city hall." It's the mayor's office. I hope you stopped into the BHV across the street!
Another reason to visit Paris. I was there over a decade ago, and want to visit it again.
Who does not love a carousel!! I am sure everyone has nice memories when they were children. And I bet everyone, no matter what age, would enjoy a ride today.... especially this one!! Do you want to go for a ride?
thanks for all your lovely comments!!
