G: In Joshua Tree National Park. C: Wow, where’s that? G: It’s in southeast California. C: Lucky you! What are you doing down there? G: Well, I started in northern California and I’ve been travelling south. C: Cool. So how’s the trip been? G: Jolly good. There’s so much to see and it’s nothing like what I imagined. C: Really?

G: I know, and they can give you the wrong idea! C: So, tell me, what’s it really like?
