A few weeks ago I shared with you my behind the scenes tour of the Greenway Carousel. Though I was able to tour the new ride before it opened, I hadn't made my first trip yet.
On my birthday eve, Saturday September 28th, I went with three girlfriends for a spin. It was about 8:00pm and downtown Boston was mostly dark. The carousel glowed all the way from Faneuil Hall.
We waited patiently for the current ride to finish so we could enter the gate and pick our animal. I circled about half away around before deciding on a butterfly in the back row.
When the ride began the music cued up and the sounds of "The Circle Game" floated through the air. We were all smiling and laughing and when the ride was over we looked at each and said, "Again?"
If you love carousels as much as I do, head to the Greenway Carousel this Monday October 14th for Community Day. From 11:00am - 1:00pm all rides are two for the price of one. For the single ticket price of $3 dollars two people can ride together or one person can ride twice.
Have you been for a spin yet? Which creature did you choose?
