20180626 Plymouth (rest day)

Date: 20180626

Stay: The Imperial, Plymouth

Activities

Rest day in Plymouth. Since it is very hot, I also make it a real rest day. In the morning I walk a bit through the Plymouth shopping center and the old town.

Then I go looking for The Hyde Park, a micro brewery. Unfortunately, there is no more micro-brewing being done. The equipment has failed and they have never restarted…
Fortunately, they have a good selection of beers on tap. So a good place to sit and read for a while, have lunch and try a few beers.

Weather

Sun all day and very warm.

Lyric of the day

Starting today I will, if possible, place a link to the song under the title so that you can immediately click on it to hear what I’m talking about.

It was really summer today, so today’s lyrics are Summer In The City by The Lovin’ Spoonful:

Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Been down, isn’t it a pity?
Doesn’t seem to be a shadow in the city
All around, people looking half dead
Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head

But at night it’s a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come on, come on and dance all night
Despite the heat it’ll be all right

And babe, don’t you know it’s a pity
That the days can’t be like the nights
In the summer, in the city
In the summer, in the city

Cool town, evening in the city
Dressing so fine and looking so pretty
Cool cat, looking for a kitty
Gonna look in every corner of the city
Till I’m wheezing like a bus stop
Running up the stairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop

But at night it’s a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come on, come on and dance all night
Despite the heat it’ll be all right

And babe, don’t you know it’s a pity
That the days can’t be like the nights
In the summer, in the city
In the summer, in the city

Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Been down, isn’t it a pity?
Doesn’t seem to be a shadow in the city
All around, people looking half dead
Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head

But at night it’s a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come on, come on and dance all night
Despite the heat it’ll be all right

And babe, don’t you know it’s a pity
That the days can’t be like the nights
In the summer, in the city
In the summer, in the city
