Sheep and carousel

At the Prospect Park zoo we fed the sheep and Sonia bravely handled everything.
The sheep were gentle and Sonia would pretty much put her whole hand inside their mouths.

I almost kissed this alpaca. They are cute and Sonia calls them "Moo."
Sonia wanted to try this carousel for a while now. I told her we would go with papa. The day has come and Sonia picked her horse. Well this was no ordinary ride. It was built in 1912 for Coney Island's first in the nation amusement park. It is antique and has a pipe organ with real drums and cymbals without any electrical stuff. However, this carousel is not for the whiny. It was built in the era of excitement, no regulations and it goes super fast. Sonia got a bit scared and I had to take her off the horse at some point. Our camera couldn't handle full speed.
Sonia had a Brazilian day. She loved wrapping herself in the flag and marching with it in circles.
