The Elephants and Maria walked back to Maria’s car. “Alma’s quinceañera is tonight,” said Maria. “It will be in a restaurant in Old Town. We can visit Old Town today before the party.

“What is Old Town?” asked Penelope.

“Penelope likes anything old and dusty,” said Harold. Penelope stuck out her tongue at him.

“Well, Old Town is old. But it is not dusty,” said Maria. “Albuquerque was founded over three hundred years ago, in 1706. Old Town dates back to that time.”

Maria continued, “I know that London is much, much older than that. Most European cities are thousands of years old. But that is very old for the United States. It is made up of the original houses of Albuquerque. There are science museums nearby,” added Maria.

“That’s what I want to see!” cried Penelope.

“And a rattlesnake museum,” said Maria.

“Oh, dear!” gasped Mrs. Elephant.

“Yay!” cried Harold. “That’s what I want to see! Cowboys and Indians and rattlesnakes!”

“I don’t know if I want to see rattlesnakes,” said Mrs. Elephant. She fluttered her hands in front of her face.

“Oh, but Mummy. It will be educational,” said Harold. He winked at Penelope.
