That ditty also helped me climb some of my hardest bicycle climbs
in California and Germany (singing to myself).

My Heidelberg colleague had a very cool backpack he used for his
baby when he went on day hikes with us. He bought it in the US,
but I don't remember the brand name. Please consider taking Isaac
Rainier on the trails one of your next times. Fresh air and good
for the family.

Also, you might try bicycle touring together in the not too-distant
future too:
