1. The Black Plague: Can You Survive!?!

2. Steps to Follow: 1. Choose your journey 2. Copy itinerary into your log 3. Go to the first city – Roll dice to determine how many nights and pull that amount of beans – Color of bean determines your fate: White = you move to next city Red = you have contracted the Plague Mottled = you have contracted Cholera – Put all beans back into the bag 4. Make an entry in your log, mark your journey on the map & go to next city 5. If you contract a disease, follow step 5
