The Visconde La Luz Carousel

Through Mums and Tots there is now a weekly happy hour at the carousel just down the road from where we live. It really looks like something from a picture book - and was installed, initially, as an art project and continued to live on long after the project was finished.

 

Margaux wasn't sure what to make of it at first... no tears, but she was examining everything very seriously and taking it all in. By the third spin (first an elephant that didn't move, followed by a carriage that rocked gently back and forth, then onto a spinning thing) she seemed more confident.

There were about 5 other Mums there - plus Gio, one of the newer members to Mums and Tots, but who is a stay-at-home Dad! Valeria and Julie were in attendance with their daughters, as you can see in the top right-hand photo.
