Merry-go-round built in 1900

---

Made a picture for my collection of Merry-go-rounds. Its a beautiful one made in 1900 and is on the mainsquare in Jerez and it still looks very original.

Visited Cadiz for the first time. A nice city with an old centre with small streets and rather high buildings still from the time they had to build within the city walls. Lots of beautiful churches and again a cathedral.
Nevert knew they had so good and long beaches here,

Passed by train on my way to Cadiz the sherry town Puerto de Santa Maria, a place I visited long time ago many times buying sherry. That time early till mid seventies it was a kind of quiet village and they even still had some local freight distribution by donkey.
Now it looks so much different with high buildings and over 55.000 inhabitants that I decided not to get off the train for a visit.
Keep it in memory the way it was in the past.

As on my last year trip I realise every now and than that seeing old well known cities and new places most of them I ll never see again.
