The pox has started hovering in the sky, the wind has picked up, and I have my weather vane from Voodoo Lady's cabin.
I'm walking around the jungle, looking at the weather vane and following where it points, but I just end up going around in circles. I always end up back at the world map, having discovered nothing. So,
without just posting the solution, please 
can someone tell me if I'm doing the right thing?
Am I doing the right thing, but doing it wrong? If you catch my drift.

Am I just misreading the directions the vane is giving me?
