I did not enjoy anything about this bus trip to start with the bus was 3 hours late arriving to pick us up As soon as we got on the bus the bus driver told us to all be quiet or he would let us off at the next stop. Then we got pulled over by the police because the bus driver was about to hit a pole or a car we couldn't understand what the policeman said because the traffic was so noisy. This was the worst bus trip I have ever taken and I will never use this bus line again.
