I was following a local photographer from Reykjavik to Vik in Iceland, and she was driving at over 100 km/h the whole way. I asked her if there were any problems, and she said that there were no speed cameras in Iceland, only police officers hiding in the bushes on some busy roads! When we entered some towns, she was also driving at a speed of over 70 km/h past the speed cameras! At the time, I was also very worried! Later on, I found that there were two types of speed cameras. One type only measured the speed, and the other type had two flashing lights on top of it. I guessed that the first type did not take pictures! Everyone can refer to this! I was driving at a speed of 100-110 km/h the whole way, and there were still many cars that passed me! On the three-digit sections, driving at 30 km/h and avoiding large stones was not a problem! The regular ring road route has no place that only SUVs can pass! As long as you don't have a tire burst, any car can go! The above is just personal advice! Everyone should decide according to their own situation! If there are more people, it's better to rent a larger car. The average cost per person won't be much different ?
Iceland Q&A
The road conditions on Zakynthos are still good, but there are many winding roads. I rented a Peugeot 208, and sometimes it's quite difficult to climb steep slopes. There are many one-way streets in the town. Now, the price for Shipwreck Bay and Blue Caves is 20 euros per person. I first went to the Potamitis place to take a boat. There were hardly any people on Sunday. After waiting for a while, a lady asked us if we were going. I asked about the price, and she said it would be 80 euros for two people because it would be a private charter. If we went with others, it would be 20 euros per person. I thought it was too expensive and there were no other people around, so I went to Agios Nikolaos. There weren't many people there on Sunday either. I asked and was told that if we didn't wait and left immediately, it would be 100 euros for two people. If we waited for others, it would be 20 euros. Luckily, after waiting for about fifteen minutes, a couple arrived, and we went together. It took about an hour and a half. It's best to arrive at the Blue Caves between 12-2 pm. I arrived there at nearly 5 pm, and the sun was shining from behind, so it wasn't very visible. I hope this helps you. ?
Greece Q&A
I originally drove on the highway in southern France. Each section had a different toll. Some had toll booths where you had to take a card, while others required you to pay first without a card. Look at the signs above the toll booths to see if you need to take the ETC lane or the regular lane with the toll sign. There was a toll to get to Paris, and there was a toll on one section of the highway to Monaco. There were no tolls on the highways in southern France, but I remember there was an automatic machine at Nice airport that could exchange paper money for coins. I think the toll machines automatically counted the coins you put in, so you didn't have to count them yourself. There were a lot of one-way streets in France, especially in small towns, and the roads were very narrow. Also, always lock your car doors when you leave it, because we were waiting at a red light on a road in Gannat and someone opened our trunk. Fortunately, we had read in the guidebook to lock the car doors before getting out, so we didn't get stolen. This time, we picked up the car in Paris and drove to the Loire Valley ?
France Q&A
I just returned from Sweden in August, and I have had many appearances before, including developed countries such as Australia. In theory, there should be no problem at all. I am now worried that the Zhongzhi Visa Center is playing tricks. I was supposed to submit my documents on September 1st. At that time, the staff checked the child's documents first and said there was no ticket pre-order. The child's other documents were all qualified. I actually bought the ticket, but I was confused and didn't print it. I told her I would go to the lobby to print it and come back in ten minutes. She said that even if it was a supplementary document, all three people had to upgrade to VIP, and each person had to pay an additional 250 yuan. I thought it was not worth it and said I would come back another day. So I made another appointment on September 5th. I checked the documents at home many times and thought there should be no problem before I went. As a result, after the staff checked all our documents, they said the photo was not qualified, and the proportion of the face in the photo was too large. I said I took it when I applied for a Swedish visa in July, and most importantly, the staff who checked the documents a few days ago said that everything was fine except for the lack of a ticket pre-order, and they even asked me to paste the child's photo on the application form. Why did they say the photo was not acceptable this time? Isn't this finding fault for no reason? I was particularly angry at the time and argued with them. The staff asked for approval from their superiors, but they said that the result of today's review was final, which was simply unreasonable. Both my partner and I went to take photos again, but the child did not go. In the end, we had to go to the school to pick up the child and take photos, which was simply trying to find ways to charge extra fees, shameless to the extreme. I don't know if they have submitted our documents as required, because based on the situation of submitting documents twice, I think the conduct of the staff of the Zhongzhi Visa Center entrusted by the embassy is really not commendable ?
