This is one enterprising 4 year old.

A 4-year-old Pennsylvania girl surprised a driver and passengers when she boarded a public bus alone in the middle of the night on a quest for a sugary slushy, transportation officials said on Sunday.

Surveillance footage shows the pint-sized girl with blonde hair, bundled up in all purple, boarding a Philadelphia bus at 3 a.m. local time on Friday and sit down by herself as a handful of passengers look curiously toward her.

The parents of the girl said they did not know that their daughter had slipped out the back door in search of her favorite beverage at a nearby convenience store, the local ABC News-affiliate reported.

because so much could have gone wrong on her adventure. Happy that someone was watching out for her safety.

She woke up before Mom and Dad and decided she wanted donuts. She took a dollar from Mom's purse and crawled out her bedroom window (she couldn't unlock the deadbolt) and started walking down a busy street to the store. Luckily, neighbors saw her and took her home. They installed window alarms.
