The fairy tale village of Moegi-no-mura is surrounded by beautiful forest. On the edge of the village stands a carousel like something made for a fairy tale. Like ordinary carousels it has horses, but it also has a chicken, a hare, a bear and a goat. The carousel in the forest made me wish I was a child again so I could ride one of the galloping animals. I made do with an ice-cream from the nearby ice-cream shop.
