Traffic in the Danish village of SOLVANG CALIFORNIA consists of pedestrians, surrey bicycles, horse trolleys, cars and cyclists. One must keep alert because there is a lot going on at once, and it is fun to observe it all! At a stop sign I not only sat behind this trolley, but when they took off again I got to enjoy the sound of the horses hooves clopping along the street. This is everyday life in the tourist town of Solvang.
This horse-driven trolley is a replica of 1800′s Danish streetcars.

Ad on back of trolley for Olsens Danish Bakery: I have tried their eclairs, cream puffs and napoleons and they are delicious!
Update: Found the horse and trolley on a side street “after hours” here:
