Once when a lion was asleep, a little mouse began running up and down upon him; this
soon awoke the lion, who placed his huge paw upon him, and open his big jaws to swallow
him.
“Pardon, O king,” cried the little mouse, “Forgive me this time, I shall never forget it;
perhaps I may be able to do you a good turn some of these days.” The lion was so tickled at
the idea of the mouse being able to help him. Then, he lifted up his paw and let him go.
Sometime after, the lion was caught in a trap. Some hunters, who wanted to carry him
alive to the King, tied him to a tree while they went in search of a wagon to carry him in. Just
then, the little mouse happened to pass by and see the sad plight in which the lion was. The
little mouse went up to him and soon gnawed away the ropes that bounded the king of the
beasts. Soon after the little mouse had finished gnawing away the ropes, he asked the lion to
run away.

My Holiday in Flores
I went to flores last month. I went there to visit Australian Volunteer English teachers in
Maumere, Ende and Bajawa. As a result, I also enjoyed the beauty of the island.
I started my first day in Maumere with Jo Keating. After visiting several schools in the city,
we took an amazing journey over the mountains to the south coast. We visited a new junior
high school there. Then, I traveled to Ende to meet Sharon Kidman. Ende has a great market
with a lovely selection of traditional woven ikat cloth, and great seafood.
My next trip was to Detusoko, It is a mountain village. I went there with Ginny Edwards. Detusoko is
not far from Mount Kelimutu. We woke up at 4 am to see the three different coloured lakes at dawn.
It was truly inspiring.
My final trip was to Bajawa. It is a small town high in the mountains. It was a very cold place. Yet my
trip was fun and memorable. I would like to go back to flores one day.
