It wasn't until the train reached Rigi Kulm that their true situation dawned on them. All the passengers left the train and handed their tickets to a ticket inspector. Susan and Midge looked at each other.
"We haven't got a ticket!" said Susan.
"No," Midge agreed.
"We haven't any money!" Susan's voice went up to a high squeak.
"No," said Midge.
"What are we to do?" said Susan.
"Nothing," said Midge.
