A trip to the Zoo or Balboa Park is not complete until you try for the brass ring at the 1910 carousel. The antique animals such as lions, tiger and bears are ferocious and are hand-carved with real horsehair was used for the tails. Rates are $1.25 per ride, unless of course, you grab the brass ring and get a free ride.
