After taking a week off, I'm back with a scene from the Williamsburg National Wax Museum. Here, we see a recreation Pocahontas saving the life of John Smith. This is a popular scene among historical wax museums, as the legend of Pocahontas and John Smith is one that Americans seem to relate to.

As I recall, Bob, a VERY similar scene was in the American Historical Wax Museum here in Gatlinburg, TN. I think a picture of it is in one of their old brochures.
