Spent a wonderful hour in the YVR lounge with my then 16yo son. Under Canadian law, he was not allowed to approach the bar area where alcohol, snacks and soft drinks were available.

He had great fun teasing the dragon, seeing how close he could get before she leapt upon him and stealing the odd Sprite from the bar when she wasn't watching (there was also a 5 year old wandering around that caused her to have palpitations whenever said child got within 5m of the bar). He only drank lemonade, but the thought that he wasn't supposed to get it on his own made it taste all the sweeter.

Of couse as soon as we got on board, the BA crew plied him with champagne which he accepted with great aplomb!
