The House on the Rock: Photo & Video Montage

On November 27th, 2009, I finally got to visit The House on the Rock in Wisconsin. This is a compilation of some of the photos and video I took, starting with one of its countless attractions: the world's largest operating carousel. The music is taken from the CD "The Circus Room and Other Selections from the House on the Rock", sold in the gift shop. It's a recording of Ravel's "Bolero" being played by one of the exhibit's many orchestrions (mechanical instrument-playing machines). Go to www.thehouseontherock.com to learn more about this phenomenal place.
