In the Museum Shop, Gabriel wanted a dragon. He wants to fight dragons when he grows up, so a plastic dragon he spotted on a shelf must have shown real promise for him. To start studying the enemy, I suppose.
But it was unfortunately a gaudy dragon, so it was forbidden by Papa. The Aesthetic Police. HAHAHAHA.
He was disappointed, until he spotted a black and white stuffed dog, modeled on a wooden folk art piece in the Museum. Our entrance tags to the Williamsburg grounds, a card in a case on a neck cord, was immediately transformed into a leash. :-)
The dog's name is Prince, and he accompanied his Master for the next few days, wherever he went, including the bed when it was time for nitey-nite.
