The bus was delayed I have lost count by how many hours. We got into two minor accidents and the owners were well aware and were not willing to provide for an alternative bus despite the condition of the bus.

The bus was boring and we were too attached to each other like there is no covid 19 and as for I've never seen a bus being swept in the middle of the journey and I was in a hurry but just because of the sweeping I was late
