A Magical Tour
The tour was sold out. Placing a brochure on every seat, Susan anticipated a very busy day.
A middle-aged couple queried everything about the legend and the castle. Later, visiting the cave below, while she warned everyone about the dangers of straying from the path, the man shouted from the far wall, ‘it says in your blurb that Merlin lived here, how could you know?’
‘Yes, how could you know?’ the woman sniggered. Susan pointed to an opening behind them, ‘you could find out in there.’
Afterwards, everyone complimented her on a great experience.
No-one mentioned the two empty seats.
Thanks to our FBM Rochelle for supplying the photo for the prompt this week and for being there week after week ….it means a lot.

Ha! Love the surprize ending. I think I like Susan very much.

That’ll track them not to wander off the prescribed path! Although it doesn’t sound like there are second chances. 😶

Dear Dee,
Susan does have her way of dealing with sniggering tourists, doesn’t she? I like her style. (And yours). 😉 Good one.
Shalom,
