Went for a lovely cycle this morning and this popped out when I came back
The family walks along the towpath
The youngest eats a banana
Tries to catch up but he’s getting distracted
Wondering where the cargo is going
And riders hurry past in brightly coloured packs
Going so fast they are gone in a flash
And the wind is picking up from the south
And optimism is in the air
The streets are somewhere off in the distance
The water and the fields all around here
On the bigger canals journeys are measured in days
The goods will get through, we hope, without delay
The family walks along the towpath
The youngest still eats his banana
Out for a walk, making the best of the weather

Lovely sketch song. Like the way you close the circle at the end. Could imagine Nilsson singing this one :)
