“Have you been to his house before?” “No.”

“Do you know the way?” “Kind of, we will read the map.”

“Do you know how to read the map?” “Yes, we will get there safely.”

“Where are we going to eat if we get hungry before arriving?” “We can stop at a restaurant if we get very hungry, my honey.”

“Do you know if there are restaurants on the way?” “Yes, there are.”

“Do you know where?” “No, but we will be able to find some.”

The same dialogue repeated a few times during the first night and second night. But on the third night, the daughter was quiet. He couldn’t help wondering why she was not asking the questions anymore.

“Honey, do you know where we are going?” “Germany, to uncle’s house.”

“Do you know how we are getting there?” “No.”
