Description
Horse and Carriage in Central Park - New York City - Central Park -
Horse and Carriage Rides. In New York City, horses are a symbol of a bygone era before the advent of cars, buses and trains. It was during this time that New Yorkers got around from place to place on horseback or by means of horse-drawn carriage.
Looking at this image reminds me of the carriage ride my husband and I took around Central Park in New York City to celebrate our 25th Wedding Anniversary. This was quite a lovely experience, followed by dinner at the Mickey Mantel Sports Restaurant on Central Park West. The restaurant closed a couple of years ago, but the carriage rides are still active in New York City.

love those carriages around Central Park, and especially love seeing a beautiful gray Percheron in the traces, since we breed them! Great photo!

Thanks so much, Donna. This was a very nice experience! Things have changed since then: there is talk of suspending the carriage rides in Central Park, and the restaurant where we celebrated our anniversary - Mickie Mantle - near Central Park, has closed down forever. Too bad!!! I appreciate your comments and f/v.
