I can't remember what I used to think about when I rode carousels as a child, and these days when I see the dreamy expressions of some kids on carousels I wonder what they're thinking of XD
And speaking of that dreamy expression, I think you nailed it on that child(?) :)
Hehe, interesting trying to remember those feelings. The mechanical parks always seemed to me that they had a unique magic and even when I see them they fill me with a lot of interest, and the old and abandoned even more. Thanks for your comment 😍
