My friend and I walk in a winter forest near Nijmegen. For us, two grandmothers walk with their two grandchildren, an estimated 4 and 6 years. The children whirl along the path and the grandmothers mane to go aside (we always have the pass in it). If we pass by, one of the children says: “Grandma, do those people also have to walk for an hour?”
