Playing in Jardin du Luxembourg
There is a large rectangular area in the garden where children can race pedal cars.
This joyful child is enjoying what would be my choice for a ride, a well-kept horse with a blue saddle and a red cart. Most of the rides are cars, tractors, and other mundane vehicles. She found the only one with a horse, and commanded the field.

She's happy on it ...
ReplyDeleteThe smile on her face says it all. I think she will remember this day Genie.
ReplyDeleteI want to be there to cheer her on! Her joy is obvious!
ReplyDeleteSo cute girl! She is having fun indeed, I love her smile!

I would be trying to get a turn with it myself!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous snap .... I love the pretty Luxemboug Gardens.
ReplyDeleteHow futile {and silly} of me to say, "I want one of those pedal cars." But ...
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautifully happy scene, Genie.
You captured the child's joy so beautifully!
ReplyDeleteThis little one's smile is contagious.
ReplyDeleteThat are very nice playing cars. Ideal for doing a Ben Hur.
ReplyDeleteLovely picture, she is enjoying the ride very much. Those pedals look rather old fashioned, from a past century almost.
ReplyDeleteAs I was a kid, there were only horses. My childhood is far behind! :o)
ReplyDeleteMaybe we can race each other, Shell, because I want one too! Beautifully captured, Genie. Don't see how anyone can look at this and not smile!
ReplyDeleteThat does look like a fun ride!
ReplyDeleteHow darling!!!
ReplyDeleteProof that today's kids can still have fun with old, traditional toys. Does my heart good to see this.
ReplyDeleteVery cute, Genie. She is delighted with her horse ride.
ReplyDeleteThe squeals of laughter and chatter of children are music to my ears. This was one of the times I wished that I was taking video rather than clicks.
ReplyDeleteMalyss, this is probably one that you rode as a child. It has been well-maintained as I am sure you have as well!
Too bad that these are a bit small for us, but I would have loved one of these as a child.
Bises,
Genie
What fun she's having! Her delight is so obvious. And what a wonderful tradition to continue.
ReplyDeleteYou've captured a precious moment here Genie.
ReplyDeleteI would have loved to ride this horse, too.
