I had a funny experience on this bus trip because on my bus found a suspicious man who was on call and my (deaf) sister saw him as a suspect. She was looking at him throughout the journey and when she told me. I got rolled on the floor by a laugh. Because he was our tour guide and taking instructions from his team.
