> Okay. I do need a bit of help with that map...and thanks for all of your help!

What I do is use copier paper. Of course, any paper will do. If the games says you're in a place with say Petunias then mark Petunias(I like to put a circle around it) Then make arrows showing N, S, E, W, ect. When you go that way mark the name of the place the game discribes. Example- North of the Petunias (show an arrow going N) is Northern Border. You do the same if you go E. East of the petunias are Sunflowers & Roses. If you run out of space then simply scotch tape (on the back side) another piece of paper to extend your map. I like to make notes about things that are in the area. Example- Sunflowers. I circle Sunflowers.
Make my arrows telling me which way I can go. Then I make a little note on the side telling me that the lion is here. I think making the maps are fun. Without one you'll wander around not knowing where you are or where you need to go. I then use a separate piece of paper to show detailed areas of certain places. Example- The Cave. The Garden. You can't always fit the details on your original map. Mark the top of the separate papers with the location. Example - THE CAVE - THE GARDEN. These maps are just details of those areas. If you have different colors that helps. Have Fun
