Carrousel Jules Verne
There are carousels at every turn in Paris, and I am not even sure how many. For me there are about five favorites but I have a list of ones yet to visit.
Carrousel Jules Verne is a relatively new addition to Parc de Monceau (autumn 2011). The colorful, petite merry-go-round is a highlight for the children of the neighborhood. On weekends every ride is taken, and during the week the mamans and nannies gather with the young children.

I have walked by Parc Monceau but never through it I am going to need to check it out-I love the carousels in Paris.
It is also my passion!Your picture is beautiful!

The kids (and I) must love this manège!!
Genie I am glad you are hooked on carousels. This one is so exotic.
A lifetime ago Jules Verne was one of my favourite authors. Wouldn't it be wonderful to read 20,000 leagues beneath the sea to a child and then take them to this carousel.
Love the turquoise submarine!
Using Jules Verne's adventures theme is wonderful for kids!They can dream to be great travellers or discoverers!
A lovely canopy over the carrousel!
I love that carousels are part of daily life in France rather than a once-a-year thing at the fair. This themed carousel is fun.
Want to play along with Dreaming of France today?
Genie has found a carousel. So, Genie is happy!
What colorful, happy fun! The children of this neighborhood are lucky! :)
The Jules Verne theme is very well executed! Great find, Genie --
I just love these!
Fun looking sub.
Oh, yes, I do love the carrousels! This one is running counter-clockwise so that the jousters can use their right arm.
Bises,

How wonderful to have a Verne themed carousel! I didn't make it to Parc Monceau on our recent trip, which was shame, but there's always something to look forward to next trip.
