Hubby and I were at Disneyland with his family over Thanksgiving weekend and somehow, we didn't end up going on the carousel which I think is a shame because I always love a good carousel ride. I love to find the prettiest horse or most bizarre animal and ride it dizzy. I saw the necklace below on the front page of etsy a few days ago and it inspired me to include all sorts of carousel-themed-goodness in this post. Here we go!

But really, what's better than a carousel ride with Mary Poppins and Bert? A carousel ride that turns into a race, of course. Enjoy!
Wow, how whimsical, what a pretty post, those photographs are stunning!
ReplyDeleteWe didn't get to ride the carousel either, but this post makes up for it :)

ReplyDeleteCan I tell you that I must have watched this movie at least a hundred times when I was a kid? And it's a toss-up between the carousel horse fox hunt and the dancing penguins as to which is my favourite part. But of course there's also the 'spoonful of sugar' scene, and the dancing chimney sweeps, and so on and so on. But that little fox shouting 'yoo haloo!' always tugs at my heartstrings.
ReplyDeleteWhat an incredibly blog you have Heidi Jo---I just discovered it and I'm in love! I think you and I should build a time machine so we can go back and visit all the gorgeous eras from which you pull inspiration. I have always thought I was born several decades too late, simply because I wish I lived in a time when hats and gloves were 'de rigeur'!
I saw you're in NorCal--we're neighbours! I live in Palo Alto with my husband...
Anyhoo, hope you're having a great weekend :)
i love it all
