When she and everyone else returned to the bus, her fellow tourists did not recognize her as being the same woman. So as far as they were thinking, the woman who had gotten off the bus had wandered away and had not yet returned. When the bus was about to leave, the tourists notified the tour guide that the passenger was missing. They gave out to everyone on the bus a description of the missing woman, and the woman herself heard the description, but she did not recognize that the description was of her prior self before she got off the bus....
