We went to Como Park Zoo and Conservatory in Minnesota. While we were there Daniel and I got to ride a carousel.
The carousel is a really old one. It was built in 1914 The horses are made of wood and are hand carved. They still have most of their original paint. The carousel had caught on fire and some of the horses were burned badly. They saved them. though and the badly burned horses were repainted and can still be ridden. The horse that I rode on had a tiger skin for it's saddle and a bow and arrows.

What a pretty carousel! I didn't know it had burned. Was it your first time to ride a carousel?
