“Are we going down?”

“No. They’ve done this thousands of times. It’s like riding a bicycle for them.”

This is the reassuring voice of a father to his son as they’re experiencing his first flight together.

Firstly, if you fly with children you deserve accolades, halls of fame, and most definitely a god like amount of patience.

Secondly, doing something for the first time should spark a lot of questions.

You have fresh eyes, a perspective without presumptions.

More often than not, your initial questions leads to yet more questions.

The real prize is not letting your sense of inquisition die with your first experience.
