Day 8 : Because it was hot

For reasons of a missed alarm, it being my day to drive and the pressing need to re-schedule the remaining week of our trip, there will be no normal blog post today. Instead, please enjoy the following summary of Day 8, to the tune of 'Because I got high' by Afroman;

La da da da da da La, Da Daaa,
La da da da, La da da da, La da da daaa

On Day 8, we went outside, and it was hot,
We went to Subway, had a good meal, and it was hot,
But over here, they don't do sausage, no they do no-ot,
(yea heyy)
And it was hot,
It was still hot,
So very ho-ot.

(La da da da da da da da da)

We went to tombstone, checked out some graves, and it was hot,
Watched a western gunfight re-enactment, and it was hot,
They had special seating, in the shade, how could they no-ot?
(yea heyy)
'Cause it's so hot
Stupidly hot
So 'effing ho-ot.

(La da da da da da da da da)

Most of us watched a multimedia historic diorama, inside where it was cool,
Most of us drank bottles of saspirilla, to make us more cool,
And had burgers topped with chilli, except, our resident 'kook',
(yea heyy)
All except Luke,
All except Luke
All except Lu-uke,

(Chilli la da da da da da da da)

Saspirilla tastes like 'Deep Heat' spray, which is a shame,
They wouldn't serve us a finger of whisky without our IDs, which was a pain,
But Luke and Woody got to play cowboys, just like John Wa-ayne,
(yea heyy)
It didn't rain,
Oh for some rain,
One drop of ra-ain,

(La da da da da da da da da)

As we drove North, toward Phoenix, it got more hot,
The in-car thermometer hit one-seventeen, 'cause it was hot,
When we arrived and got back outside, deny we could no-ot,
(yea-heyy)
It was so hot,
So fucking hot,
Way, way too ho-ot,

(La da da da da da da da da)

We went out, to get us some eats, it was still hot,
It was, like, nine in the bloody evening, it was still hot,
Woody and I went to play pool, I made an amazing black-ball jump-shot,
(yea-heyy)
But outside it was hot,
You know the score,
Stupidly, overly, unnecessarily hot,

(La da da da da da da da da)

We were meant to stay in Phoenix, but now we're not,
Were gonna go to a water-park, but now we're not,
Think I've been clear as to why, but in case I've no-ot,
(yea-heyy)
It's 'cause it's hot,
Way too fucking hot,
Genuinely the hottest place I've ever been, and I've been places...we don't want to stay, you wouldn't either. It's ridiculous.
