Compared with the past, I added some new equipment this time, and it feels very easy to use: the iPad fanni2 has a sharp and convenient screen, and you don’t need to bring travel books, you can use electronics. Especially when visiting museums, it is really lightweight. One iPad solves the two major functions of tour guide taking photos, which is great.

An Qingju and An Chuyu's SLR cameras are equipped with a tall and ultra-light tripod and selfie artifact: the remote control. An Qingju and An Chuyu have equipped their SLR cameras with several portable tripods, which have quality problems and are easy to break.

This time I bought a portable tripod called Manfrotto. Although it is a little expensive (it costs 200 yuan), it is of high quality and easy to operate. There is no problem supporting An Qingju and An Chuyu canon550d, and it is cost-effective. With a remote control, it is much more convenient to take selfies and pose for two groundhogs.

For other electrical appliances, the French plug is a two-legged round stick plug, and it can be handled with some universal plugs. The music in the new car you drive can be copied to the U disk, and the new car supports U disk or Bluetooth to read music!

Other items, An Chuyu won't go into details, they are nothing more than clothing, daily necessities, and medicines. In terms of clothes, the temperature in France in summer will not be very low, and the thickest clothes are trousers and jackets are enough. Most of the time An Qingju and An Chuyu wear short-sleeved clothes, and a thin sunscreen jacket is in hand.

Other items, An Chuyu won’t go into details, but are nothing more than clothing, daily necessities, and medicines. In terms of clothes, the temperature in France in summer will not be very low, and the thickest clothes are trousers and jackets are enough. Most of the time An Qingju and An Chuyu wore short-sleeved clothes. They put a thin sunscreen jacket in their schoolbag.

Hats and sunscreen must be available, it is simply inseparable. Because I have been out for a long time, I must prepare enough medicines. This time, An Chu had a cold and had diarrhea once, thanks to these medicines.

As before, you must prepare a copy of important documents (ID card, passport, round-trip air ticket, insurance). You can also prepare an electronic version to store it in your iPad or your email address, and you can prepare it for any eventuality.

Before leaving, I went to the bank to exchange some euros (1,000 euros per month for two people is enough for cash). Be careful to try to exchange some change. It is difficult to find a 500 euro.

In fact, there is no need for a lot of cash in France, but some places do not support domestic magnetic stripe credit cards (hotels, supermarkets, etc.), including: gas stations, self-service toll points on highways, self-service ticket machines on subways and buses.

If you have not prepared a chip credit card (note that it must be a chip credit card, not a chip debit card), you can only pay cash in these places, so you must be mentally prepared.

As I was about to get here, I could basically handle the entire itinerary. Someone might ask: Why do you have to plan your itinerary like this or that? How can you know that this is where you are going to see?

Those who can ask this question have already started from "tourism" to "tourism". For most tourists, travel in France should probably be these keywords: Paris, the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, Galeries Lafayette, Perfume, Provence, Arc de Triomphe.

So what do the following words mean for travelers: Napoleon, Bastille, Paris Commune, Louis XVI. King of the Sun, François I, Notre Dame de Paris, Charles de Gaulle, Normandy Landing. Escape from the Tiger's mouth, Burgundy, Bordeaux, Seine, Chanson...

For An Qingju, travel is divided into three processes: "Spiritual Travel", during the trip, and "Memories" after the trip. During the "Spiritual Travel", An Qingju will hold the map with one hand and write the representatives of French events (this is compiled by himself), and read as many French novels, French movies, French stories, French documentaries, and even French news as much as possible.

In this way, I gradually sort out the places I want to see, and gradually build a three-dimensional travel map of time + space in my mind.

This is the beauty of self-service travel. If you travel with a group, in An Qingju's opinion, it seems like chewing wax to repeatedly walk through countless places that people have traveled, it doesn't matter what these places mean to him at all. It just forces these nouns into his mind, as if "the masses" are equivalent.

Although it takes a complicated and even a bit of hard preparation to set out on your own, the trip to that land and the things you experience on that land are unique and your own experience. You may visit a place where everyone will go, but the viewing angle is your own choice.

You may choose a place with almost no tourists, but it is equally well-known to you. This is the real charm of travel for An Qingju and An Chuyun.

It was two o'clock in the afternoon when I arrived in Paris. I first left the customs and then took my luggage. I walked out like this, and there was no one to check. I heard on the news that France had strengthened airport security measures in response to the United States' requirements for strengthening terrorist investigations, but I really didn't see it.

The planes of An Qingju and An Chuyu arrived at the t2 terminal of Charles de Gaulle Airport, but the automatic transmission car booked by An Qingju and An Chuyu only had it in T1 (T2 also has a pick-up point, but there is no automatic transmission model). The two of them pulled their luggage and followed the instructions to take the airport's free shuttle to the budget store in T1, which was very smooth.

All car rental companies are parked on the red floor of the airport parking building. If you see it correctly, it is the red floor. Perhaps because you are afraid that people will remember the wrong location, you can directly mark the color. Once you arrive at the red floor, you will see it at a glance. The walls are all red. Just find your own car rental company sign and get off the car.

An Qingju and An Chuyu's car was automatically upgraded to a volvoxc60d4, a diesel car, and it was a big guy again. However, it was a brand new car. It just left the factory on July 1, 2014. When An Qingju and An Chuyu got the car, it showed that the mileage was 12 kilometers! The car was spotless and had a smell of a new car. Obviously, there were not many people renting automatic cars in France.

When I was about to set off, I found that there was no place for the key under the steering wheel. It was the first time I used such a tall car. I quickly asked the staff. It turned out that when the key was in the car, I stepped on the brake and pressed the start button and the car started. It was so advanced! After two groundhogs started the car, they drove onto the road along the instructions of the first French word sortie (exit) I mastered today.

The first stop for An Qingju and An Chuhui in France was not Paris, but a small town called Giverny 90 kilometers away from Charles de Gaulle Airport. Paris is reserved for the last stop for An Qingju and An Chuhui.

In this way, the car set off from the airport, the road became narrower and the scenery became wilder. GPS finally brought An Qingju and An Chuyu to the accommodation of An Qingju and An Chuyu in Giverny: a village called limetz 1 km outside Giverny town.

It was already past six o'clock when An Qingju and An Chu met Da's residence, and it was already late at night in the capital. This is why you couldn't drive too long on the first day of getting off the plane. Should you be sleepy?

The gate of the residence was closed, and An Qingju stepped forward and rang the doorbell a little nervously. The owner's family was greeted by An Qingju and An Chuhui. They were preparing to go out for dinner. They were waiting for An Qingju and An Chuhui to move in.

The owner's yard is located in the countryside of Limetz. The house is surrounded by a 5 or 6 acres of courtyard, which is very exquisitely tidy. The room between An Qingju and An Chuyu is an independent brick house at the end of the yard, with a small courtyard door that can be entered and exited separately. The gate in the photo leads directly to the owner's large courtyard.

The time difference was combined with the time when they first arrived in Guizhou, An Chu met Caocao and went to bed after getting familiar with the room. An Qingju was not sleepy at all. When she first arrived in Guizhou, she saw that everything was fresh. So she put on her backpack and left the yard. Soon she passed a small river in the village. The cottage on the river surface should be a dock.

However, after walking 200 meters, I saw the map of the entrance of the village, which marked the village boundary of limetz. If you extend the road by 1 kilometer, you will reach Giverny Town. So An Qingju turned back and walked towards downtown of limetz village, and arrived in just 15 minutes.

The town was very clean, but An Qingju soon discovered the difference: there were cars parked on the road, which meant that there were many people living in the town, but there was no one on the street. After walking around the village for more than half an hour, I saw a woman walking far away from the road and flashing into the house. Where did the people go?

Standing on the street, my ears were pricked up, and the whispers of the crowd gradually floated in the air. It was around 7 o'clock in the evening in France, and it was dinner and talk. Everyone was in the courtyard and in the houses, but no one was standing on the street.

This kind of scene is a bit strange for a Chinese. In the memory of An Qingju and An Chuhui, the village at dinner is probably the most lively moment: all the workers come back from the field; children run wildly on the street; adults stand on the street chatting for nothing, and those who have something to do will also talk loudly while doing things.

Many people actually stood at the door with their bowls and ate while talking to passers-by; small vendors pushed the cart and kept shouting; even the houses were open, and the voices of people in the room drifted to the road...

This answer was not answered until the next morning when I communicated with the owner An Qingju and An Chu met. And today An Qingju saw this scene:

The quiet village service club, which says the town hall is in the town (equivalent to our village committee). Each window of the northern residents is equipped with window guards. When people are not at home, they completely block the windows. The small black device in the photo is used to fix the window guards.
