“Mom, I think I know how they made oceans. Want me to tell you? First they had to use machines to dig the holes really really REALLY big and then they used some very big things to make the holes bigger and then lots of guys brought the water and they had to use humongous trucks and then they poured the water in on the side and filled it up and then it went all the way to all the places and it was a LOT of water and that is how it is an ocean. That is how they did it.”
