Bad, United Kingdom Road trip Q&A

If it's lavender, I can only answer that I don't know. Yesterday, when I was in the valley, I was taking pictures of the lavender on the left, and the field on the right was being harvested. A large area of the field was harvested by the combine harvester in about an hour. My signal was bad and I couldn't upload the picture. Note that I was in the valley, with slopes, not on the roadside or flat ground. The roadside may be harvested faster. I really can't answer where to see lavender in August ? France Q&A

Dear experts, please help me with the following questions: 1. I will stay in Füssen for two days, mainly to visit Neuschwanstein Castle and Linderhof Palace (actual visiting time is one and a half days). 2. I will stay for two nights near Lake Königssee in Ramsau or Berchtesgaden, but I'm not sure which place is more suitable. 3. I will skip Salzburg and go directly from near Lake Königssee to visit St. Wolfgang and Grundlsee (mainly to visit Hallstatt) and stay for one night. 5. Two days in Vienna. 6. One day in Český Krumlov. 7. Two and a half days in Prague. Is this itinerary feasible ? Germany Q&A

On the highway EP-2 from Barcelona to Zaragoza. Got punctured tyre at the rest stop and then continued on the highway. Someone in a yellow vest pretending to be a police officer helped us. Drove us to the side of the road and then robbed all our backpacks, big loss. Called the police, they said not to rest at that section's rest area, bad guys are watching. If you get a flat tyre, lock your car doors, call the police, wait for the rental car company to rescue you. This happened on January 29, 2020, hope more drivers see this and be careful to avoid it. If possible, don't drive. Flying is safer on that route ? Spain Q&A

This year during the Dragon Boat Festival, I went with my own pole and loaded two vacuum-packed meat zongzi. A fellow traveler asked if I wanted to bring some, but I was afraid of getting him into trouble, so I said it was best not to bring any. If we were put on a blacklist, it would be bad. But in the end, my friend took the zongzi out of the box and put them back in the suitcase. When we were about to board the plane, I saw an old foreigner pick up a box of Five-flavor Glutinous Rice Zongzi and get on the plane directly. I didn't dare tell my friend what I had seen.. ?

It used to be smooth to pick up the car in advance no matter where, but this time at Hertz at Oslo Airport, I arrived more than an hour in advance and was told that the car had not arrived and I couldn't pick it up early. They asked me to pay extra to change the car or wait for an hour to complete the procedures. I ended up waiting for an hour. Ten days later, I had to go to Iceland and arrived three hours in advance. I was afraid of encountering the same situation, so I wanted the customer service and the car rental company to communicate the situation. The customer service asked me to cancel the order and place a new one, but I had to email the car rental company to explain the situation. However, I did not receive a reply from the car rental company in Iceland. Fortunately, picking up the car in advance in Iceland was not a problem, and I was upgraded to an SUV with 4-wheel drive for free. So, I have a good impression of Iceland this time, but a very bad impression of Hertz at Oslo Airport. They not only make things difficult and charge for miscellaneous items, but they have already charged me three times ? Norway Q&A

The enthusiasm of the people of Sicily, Italy, is a passionate and unrestrained one. In Rome, the enthusiasm you see is a refined routine. For example, when you go to a restaurant, the waiter will recommend two special dishes for the day. When you ask what they are, he will tell you about the volcano beef and swan roasted fish... The prices are all on the menu. Each dish is about 25 euros, not bad, right? When you're halfway through the meal, they will bring you a glass of ice wine, telling you it's complimentary, and shake hands with you... As for the swan roasted fish, they will enthusiastically ask if you need help opening it. I firmly say no, but they will still help you open it as if they didn't hear me... Let's talk about the bill. When you pay, they will tell you it's 293 euros, plus a 10% service charge, and fish is charged by weight (the fish is at most 1.5 pounds, and the beef is only the size of a fist, definitely not 2 pounds), and the water before the meal is 10 euros. Also, when taking a taxi, make sure to use the meter... And there are a lot of pickpockets there, so be careful of women wearing scarves. Even if you put your bag in front of you, it won't help. They will use the scarf to block your line of sight... They usually work in groups... Even so, Italy is still very, very beautiful. It feels like walking in a historical museum, and shopping is also very enjoyable... Wishing friends a pleasant journey ? Italy Q&A
