Gary, this is very telling--you can almost feel the angst from the little boy. Is this your son? He wants so badly to get inside the glass and play with this boat--at least be able to touch it. Museums are a cruel place to take a child, when you think about it! :^) #2263

Yes, he is. He spent a lot of time looking at the ship models while his older sister looked at an interactive display on weather. I think he really did want to play with them, but he's been to enough museums to know that he couldn't... #3658
