 Early the next morning; Jun and Lisa have started on the Kalalau Trail
　　 Jun: Why didn't you tell me this hike would be so hard? Paradise is much steeper than Utah.
　　 Lisa: I'm panting, too. But look at that ocean blue! We'll be back down there soon.
　　 Jun: But I'll be dead before we make it. Come on. Let's take a break. [a herd of wild goats walk by]
　　 Lisa: Baa, baa. Wow, Jun. Someone could really live here, hunting goats and eating guava and mango.

　　 小君：为什么你没告诉我这趟健行会这么难走？天堂还比犹他州更陡。
