Raghu stared at the TV screen. He was playing his favourite video game. He steered a race car with his controls. The car zoomed along a mountain road. It was very hot outside. But the air conditioner in Raghu’s room kept it nice and cool. The microwave oven in the kitchen beeped. Raghu paused his game. He ran and got a pizza out of the oven. Then he took it back to his room. He munched as he played the game.
“Raghu, come on! It’s time to leave!” his dad called out.
“Okay!” Raghu called back. He walked outside, where his dad had the car parked for a camping trip.
“This is going to be a great trip,” Mr. Jain said. “Just you, me and the sky above.”
“Sure,” Raghu said. But he wasn’t exactly paying attention. He climbed into the car. Then he turned on his video game. Raghu played the game while his father drove. Two hours later, his father stopped the car. “
Here we are, son,” he said. Raghu looked out of the car. They were in the middle of the woods. The car was parked in a small clearing. Raghu got out of the car, confused. Tall trees grew all around them. Small plants grew under his feet. It was very hot, even in the shade. “What is this?” Raghu asked.
“It’s our campsite,” Mr. Jain said. “No TV. No air conditioning. Just peace and quiet. Isn’t that great?” Raghu didn’t know what to say. It didn’t sound great at all!
