know the strange city. I got on the first bus in the morning, rode on it for several stops,
then got off it and walked on. The first two hours passed happily enough. Then I decided to
turn back to my hotel for lunch. After walking about for some time, I decided I'd better ask
the way. The trouble was that the only word I knew of the language was the name of the
street in which I lived and even that I pronounced badly.
I stopped to ask a friendly-looking newspaper seller. He smiled and handed me a paper.
I shook my head and repeated the name of the street and he put the paper into my hands. I
had to give him some money before I went on my way. Then I met a policeman. I asked him
at once. The policeman listened to me carefully, smiled and took me by the arm. There was
a strange look in his eyes as he pointed left and right and left again. I thanked him politely
and began walking on.
About an hour passed and I found that the houses were getting fewer and fewer and
green fields could be seen on either side of me, I had come all the way into the country. The
thing left for me to do was to find the nearest bus station.
