You and some friends go to a book fair where booths are set out in rows. You
buy drinks at the refreshment stand and then walk 8 rows north and 2 rows
east to the science fiction booth. Then you walk 1 row south and 2 rows west
to the children's book booth. Where is the children's book booth in relation to
the refreshment stand?
