Time for WeekendReflections and The Weekend Roundup and the letter is C and Carousel
I discovered that Australia does not have many CAROUSELS although they seem to CALL them Merry go rounds here, so I thought I will tell you about this famous one below (photo above taken from internet)
Semaphore CAROUSEL
The colourful Semaphore CAROUSEL was built by Len Northey in 1928 and moved to Semaphore around 1938.
The Rotary CLUB of Henley Beach manages the CAROUSEL to raise money for local and international CHARITIES. It is believed to be the largest operating carousel in Australia, with 40 handcrafted wooden horses, whereas most other rides like this only have 36 horses.
Below is an old police CAR and behind it a Vintage CAR. The final shot is of a man at the CAR Rally on the Isle of Wight.
I appreciate your visit and comments.
I hope you enjoyed this post today.
That's what I'd call an interesting variety!
ReplyDeleteGreat collection of photos. Take care, have a great day and happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteI do enjoy a carousel/merry-go-round. I'd ride it, then I'd want to see the vintage cars.
ReplyDeleteGreat post! I can still remember my first carousel ride.
