Isak is obsessed with Indiana Jones. Last year it was Star Wars, and before that it was cars (he could identify all makes by sight at age 3). He has not even seen all the Indiana Jones movies because Mark and I are very conservative when it comes to what we think is appropriate for kids. He has seen an edited version of the Last Crusade, and a few select scenes from the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. But he readily tells people that the Temple of Doom is his favorite movie, and second to it Raiders of the Lost Ark. What? How can two favorite movies be ones you have never seen (and won't see for many years to come, especially the Temple of Doom)?
He is going to be Dr. Jones for Halloween of course, and today Mark and I surprised him with the bag in the picture. He's been running around with a purple canvas one of mine for over a year, that I bought in Spain back in 1996. Well, people this is the REAL THING. It is an authentic MK VIII gas mask bag from the British army, made in 1942 (!!), and it is just like the one Indiana Jones has in Raiders of the Lost Ark (in the other ones the bag has a leather strap).

Where did you score that bag? He looks to good with it.
OJ, va häftigt!!
Wow va du ser tuff ut, Isak!
Kram från mormor
I found it online and because it was just a few dollars more than the FAKE (cheap reproduction) I splurged. A boy with three sisters who has been running around with a purple PURSE for the past year has earned his military bag, I figured.
WHat a stud! You better watch it. As soon as the girls realize that they girls they will soooo be going after Isak!
