Hey fellow adventurers! Once again, we’re talking about stories! This was probably the post I was most excited for this month because I loved reading One Thousand and One Nights growing up (a kid’s version obviously). And there are so many more versions that I want to read now that I’m an adult!
For those of you who don’t know, One Thousand and One Nights is about a king who discovers the wives of both him and his brother have been cheating on them with other men. Deciding that all women are unfaithful traitors, the king decides to marry and eventually kill every innocent virgin girl in his village until the only one left is the vizier’s daughter. Rather than back away, the daughter begs her dad to let her marry the king to which the vizier reluctantly agrees. On the night of their marriage, the vizier’s daughter begins to tell the king a story but stops midway. The king agrees to let her live another day if she finishes her story the following day. She does but then she starts another story and once again, doesn’t finish the story unless he lets her live another day. This goes on for one thousand and one nights until (spoiler alert) he pardons her so she’s no longer in danger of being executed. Some of the stories she tells him are pretty well known:
Aladdin (http://www.thenagain.info/Classes/Sources/Aladdin.html)
Aladdin finds a magic lamp that grants him riches, the hand of the sultan’s daughter and an extravagant palace but is tricked by an evil sorcerer.
Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves (http://www.sacred-texts.com/neu/burt1k1/tale31.htm)
Ali Baba, a poor woodcutter, stumbles upon a cave full of treasure while gathering firewood and takes a small bag of coins home with him. However, when his greedy brother finds out about the cave, he gets caught and murdered by the forty thieves who frequent the cave. It doesn’t take the thieves long to figure out Ali Baba knows their secret and attempt to eliminate him multiple times but fail every time.
Sinbad the Sailor (http://www.sacred-texts.com/neu/lang1k1/tale15.htm)
A rich merchant tells a poor porter the story of how he became rich through seven wondrous journeys. During his voyages throughout the seas east of Africa and south of Asia, he has fantastic adventures going to magical places, meeting monsters, and encountering supernatural phenomena.
And then there’s stories you might have heard of but didn’t realize where Arabian Night stories:
The Three Princes (http://www.fairytales24.ru/catalog/saudi-arabia-folktales/skazka-the-three-princes-675/)
To win the hand of a beautiful princess, three princes embark on a journey to find the most a trinket so amazing that it will move the princess to want to marry them.
The Fisherman and the Genie (http://www.uexpress.com/tell-me-a-story/2008/5/4/the-fisherman-and-the-genie-a)
A fisherman stumbles upon a genie’s bottle and accidentally awakens the vengeful genie who has planned on killing whoever releases him from his bottle.
In the post on Indian folktales I mentioned that this was my favorite story growing up:
The Prince and the Tortoise (http://ursulav.livejournal.com/1488524.html)
A king intent on marrying off his sons tells his sons that Allah will decide their future wives by leading the arrow they shoot into the territory of their future wives’ homes. The first two sons land their arrows in the territory of nearby kingdoms but the third and youngest son shoots his arrow into a tortoise’s garden. Certain it’s a mistake the king has his son shoot several more arrows, all of which land in the tortoise’s garden. The son, believing it is Allah’s will, marries the tortoise. However, the tortoise has some surprising secrets up her sleeve (shell?).
That’s it for this post! I highly recommend you read the stories I mentioned. They’re all amazing! Do have a favorite Arabian Nights story? If so, please comment which one below! I would love to check it out if I haven’t read it already! Thank you so much for reading my blog! Until our next adventure!

this piece of writing which I am reading here.
Ridiculous quest there. What occurred after? Thanks!
In Niedersachsen waren bis zum 18. Mai Übernachtungen extra für Menschen mit Wohnsitz in Niedersachsen erlaubt, diese Regelung wurde von einem Gericht gekippt.
Weltweit ist Reisen wegen der Corona-Pandemie
weiterhin stark eingeschränkt und erfüllt von Auflagen wie Quarantäne
und Testpflicht verbunden. Wo in Deutschland ist Urlaub möglich?
Da das Oberverwaltungsgericht zudem das Beherbergungsverbot für auswärtige Touristen in Niedersachsen gekippt hat,
dürfen auch dort wieder Bürger aus anderen Bundesländern Urlaub machen. Dort ist
seit dem 17. Mai kurz Land Urlaub unter Beachtung strenger Auflagen erlaubt – zuvor war dies bereits in vier Modellregionen der Fall.
Touristische Übernachtungen sind in den meisten Teilen Deutschlands
noch untersagt. Voraussetzungen sind i. a. ein negatives Corona-Testergebnis bei Einreise sowie weitere negative Tests hier in der Gegend alle
72 Stunden oder alternativ ein Impfnachweis.
Seit 17. Mai dürfen in Schleswig-Holstein landesweit Hotels und andere Beherbergungsbetriebe
für Geimpfte, Genesene und Getestete wieder öffnen. In Deutschland sind
touristische Übernachtungen noch fast durchgängig untersagt.
Eine Ausnahme ist Schleswig-Holstein. Urlaub trotz
Corona: Welche aktuellen Regeln gelten?
Way cool! Some very valid points! I appreciate you writing this write-up and
the rest of the site is extremely good.
I think the admin of this website is truly working hard for his site,
since here every material is quality based stuff.
Wonderful blog! I found it while searching on Yahoo
News. Do you have any tips on how to get listed in Yahoo News?
I’ve been trying for a while but I never seem to get there!
Thank you
Hi colleagues, how is everything, and what you desire to say on the topic of this paragraph,
in my view its really remarkable in support of me.
Hello are using WordPress for your blog platform?
I’m new to the blog world but I’m trying to get started
and set up my own. Do you need any coding knowledge to make your
own blog? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Appreciating the persistence you put into
your website and detailed information you present.
It’s nice to come across a blog every once in a while that isn’t the same old rehashed material.
Great read! I’ve saved your site and I’m adding your RSS
feeds to my Google account.
I like what you guys are usually up too.
This kind of clever work and reporting! Keep up the fantastic works guys I’ve added you guys to blogroll.
Hi there colleagues, its enormous paragraph about tutoringand fully explained,
keep it up all the time.
I am really loving the theme/design of your website.
Do you ever run into any web browser compatibility problems?
A couple of my blog audience have complained about my
website not operating correctly in Explorer but
looks great in Safari. Do you have any advice to
help fix this problem?
I love looking through an article that will make men and
women think. Also, thank you for allowing for me to comment!
Informationen dazu holt Ihr am besten direkt beim Veranstalter ein. Um auf alle Eventualitäten vorbereitet kaum Vorteile bieten,
solltet Ihr Euch vor Eurer Reise Informationen über Euren bestehenden Versicherungsschutz
auswärtig einholen. Weltweite Reisebeschränkungen zur Verhinderung der Ausbreitung des Coronavirus sorgen dafür, dass weiterhin Airlines am Tiefpunkt bleiben und Hotels vorübergehend geschlossen sind.
Brauche ich eine Auslandskrankenversicherung?
Direkt informiert, wenns wieder losgeht!
Das ganze übrigens nicht nur während der Corona-Pandemie,
sondern grundsätzlich. Reisende tragen die Kosten der Tests
– die beispielsweise für die Ein- und Rückreise oder eine vorzeitige
Beendigung der Quarantäne nötig sein können – grundsätzlich selbst, solange diese nicht von einem Arzt verordnet wurden. Zudem
bremst das Coronavirus u.U. das öffentliche Leben aus, was eine Reise erschwert.
Doch irgendwann ist auch diese Krise überstanden und wir können uns endlich wieder darauf freuen, die
Welt zu entdecken. Gemeiniglich seid Ihr mit Eurer Krankenversicherungskarte innerhalb Europas versichert, außerhalb Europas gilt der Versicherungsschutz normalerweise jedoch nicht.
Um auf Nummer sicher zu gehen, empfehle ich Euch, Eure
Versicherung zu kontaktieren und nachzuhaken, ob Euer
Reiseziel durch den bestehenden Schutz gedeckt ist.
Wer trägt die Kosten für Tests? Damit Ihr schon einmal von Eurer nächsten Reise träumen könnt, empfehle ich Euch, durch unsere beliebtesten Urlaubsziele zu stöbern und Euch inspirieren zu lassen. Alternativ könnt
Ihr Euch auch jederzeit vor einer Reise über eine spezielle Reiserücktrittsversicherung informieren sowie diese unkompliziert abschließen, um Euch für
Euren nächsten Urlaub abzusichern. Potentiell bekommt
Ihr aber auch von Eurem Reiseveranstalter die Möglichkeit,
Euch kostenlos testen zu lassen. Eine Übersicht der
überdies individuellen Regelungen aller Bundesländer findet Ihr auf
der Webseite der Bundesregierung.

Hey! I know this is somewhat off topic but I was wondering which blog
platform are you using for this website? I’m getting fed
up of WordPress because I’ve had issues with hackers
and I’m looking at alternatives for another platform.

platform.
This is a topic which is close to my heart…

and bloggers made excellent content as you probably did, the web will be a lot more
helpful than ever before.

even a weblog from start to end.
Tremendous issues here. I’m very satisfied to peer your post.

Hi there, I enjoy reading all of your article post. I wanted to write a little comment to support you.
Hey this is kind of of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML.
I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding know-how
so I wanted to get advice from someone with experience. Any help would be enormously appreciated!
Hey would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re using?
I’m going to start my own blog in the near future but
I’m having a hard time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely
unique. P.S Apologies for getting off-topic but I had to
ask!
Hey there great blog! Does running a blog similar to this take a massive amount work?
I’ve very little understanding of coding but I was
hoping to start my own blog soon. Anyways, if you have any ideas or techniques for new blog
owners please share. I understand this is off topic
but I simply wanted to ask. Appreciate it!
You really make it seem so easy along with your presentation however
I to find this matter to be actually one thing that I believe I’d by no means understand.
It sort of feels too complicated and extremely broad for me.
I’m looking ahead in your next post, I’ll attempt to get the hold of it!
