The owl and the pussycat

Mr Thuymusic and I are planning on sailing away for a year and a day around the world , taking years over it , nice and relaxed. Starting in a couple of years. I am just contemplating what instruments I will take as it will be a 32 to 36 ft boat super small. I am so excited about this. Great planning will be done. I'll have to take instruments that dont need electricity. Prior to 2019 I was pretty much acoustic. Something overtook me and I went totally electronic. So it'll be going back to grass roots. Maybe I'll take my wood flutes and tounge drum. The dolphins might like that. A large acoustic guitar will be too large, we have a baby classical like the owl's so that may be a possibility. And what recording equipment, my phone interface and use my phone with cusbasis maybe. The owl and the pussycat went to sea,
In a beautiful pea-green boat. They took some honey, and plenty of money, Wrapped up in a five pound note. The owl looked up to the stars above, And sang to a small guitar. "O lovely pussy, O pussy my love, What a beautiful pussy you are, you are! What a beautiful pussy you are!" Pussy said to the owl "You elegant fowl, How charmingly sweet you sing! Oh! let us be married, too long we have tarried, But what shall we do for a ring?" They sailed away, for a year and a day, To the land where the bong tree grows. And there in a wood a piggy-wig stood, With a ring at the end of his nose, his nose, With a ring at the end of his nose. "Dear pig, are you willing to sell for one shilling, Your ring?" said the piggy "I will." So they took it away and were married next day, By the turkey who lives on the hill. They dined on mince and slices of quince, Which they ate with a runcible spoon. And hand in hand on the edge of the sand, They danced by the light of the moon, the moon, They danced by the light of the moon.
