Quips

1. One hour before landing ...

Alec: "Are we still looking for a place to park?"
Me: "Yes, you can say that"
Alec: "How do you know where to park, it is so cloudy up here?"
Me: "They have a navigation system, to tell the pilots where to go. And when we are close, they will see two lines of lights to help us landing"
Alec: "Do you know why Medan looks so dark from here?"
Me: "Tell me"
Alec: "Because some people don't have electrisilly"

2. Minutes before landing ...

Alec:
"Hey, is that Medan?"
Me: "Yes it is !"
Alec: "Wow, Medan is a big city! Does this mean I'm looking at the planet?"
Me: "Planet earth that is, yes."
Alec: "Are we in the space, now?"
Me: "We are in the air, but not in the space. We need a very special equipment to be in the space"
Alec: "Why do we call this earth? Is it because it's dirty?"

Cheech,
I am soooooo glad and soooo relieved that Alec has so much curiosity and you are ALWAYS there to quench his thirst!
He will grow up to be a character of thought, love and action.
