January 4, 2014 Rose Kennedy Greenway Carousel
Just before the new year, we were able to catch a ride on the carousel. Rides are $3 each and a book of 10 tickets can be purchased for $25. They will be closed 1/1/14- 4/18/14 but will re open for April school vacation week!
They began construction of the carousel in March of 2013 and it opened to the public on August 31st. The carousel features 14 different animals from the land and sea that are native to Massachusetts including a sea turtle, a cod, a peregrine falcon, a grasshopper, a harbor seal, a fox, a skunk, a whale, three types of butterflies, a barn owl, and a sea serpent. The characters are inspired by drawings from Boston school children. Watch this amazing video below to see the carousel come to life.
