Soon Tonino and Mameto heard a gay sound of music, and a minute later they were on the Grand Place of Vence,

which is about five times as big as the Grand Place at Tonino's home in Nouvilo.
这是托尼诺Nouvilo家中大广场的五倍大。
The Grand Place was crowded with people, for the big fair was in full swing.

There were two merry-go-rounds, one with horses and one with automobiles,

You won't be surprised to hear that Tonino forgot all about his pottery for a moment,

and wanted to climb down from the cart then and there and ride on the merry-go-rounds and visit every booth.
他想从车上下来，骑着旋转木马，然后参观每一个摊位。
But his Mameto told him that it would be much better to sell his pottery first.

Then he would have some money to spend at the fair.

Mameto had just caught sight of an inn with a picture of a golden pigeon over the door, called "The Golden Pigeon Inn."
玛莫刚看到一家旅店，门上有一只金色的鸽子，叫作“金鸽子旅馆”。
The innkeeper was just as friendly as could be.

His inn was full, he said, as a lot of strangers had come to Vence for the fair.
他说客栈已经满了，因为很多外地人都来旺斯参观集市。
But he had a tiny room over the stable, with a big double bed.

But it looked comfortable and clean,

He said: "You have a very fine donkey. He looks as if he could run fast.

Why don't you ride him in the donkey race this afternoon?"
你今天下午为什么不骑它去参加驴赛呢？”
