The Battle We walked through the night for about two (A)—, until we came to a hillside on which many small(B)___ were
burning. Infadoos told us that the chiefs had gathered the warriors under their command here, and that as soon
(C)_ the sun rose we should all address them. When the (D)— had risen the warriors gathered on the slope of the
hill, and Infadoos took the chiefs and stood before the army.
When they had heard the prince's story and seen the markings on his back, the (E) — all stamped their feet, and
the whole hillside seemed to shake. We now had the backing of the army. We decided to wait for the enemy where
we were, and the following morning they came. As the armies met, a great cry went up from our warriors, "The prince!
The prince!" and we heard men screaming when the spears found them. In the end we managed to push their army
back down the hill.

In the evening we went to the park. There were a lot of side-shows in it. I tried all of them and I liked them very much.
We had a very interesting menu for our breakfasts, dinners and suppers. There is a lot of fruit in it.
We stayed in the hotel. There was a garden near it. There were many flowers in the garden.
It was the best holiday in my life!
