Dijon's Owl

There is a word "Owl Trip" in Korea. As you know this owl doesn't sleep in night with very big dark eye. So if people visit to somewhere to sightseeing without sleeping like as no-night 2 days, we call this as "Owl trip". When I've visit to information center of Dijon in France, they give me the information brochure named as "Owl trip". At first I think what a kindness of Dijon, they prepare information brochure using non-dictionary word for Korean. Of course, this childish dream was broken as soon. This owl of Dijon may be related to anti revolution movement history in 1800's.
By the way, this owl became a representative symbol of Dijon with traditional wine farm. We can find 22 owl marks on the road that lead us to famous places.

Paris Syndrome ???

A Japanese woman, Aimi, told the paper:
"For us, Paris is a dream city. All the French are beautiful and elegant ... And then, when they arrive, the Japanese find the French character is the complete opposite of their own." Around a dozen Japanese tourists a year need psychological treatment after visiting Paris as the reality of unfriendly locals and scruffy streets clashes with their expectations, a newspaper reported on Sunday.

All places in where the human being occupy could be same except for Serengeti for wildlife. The only differentiation is whether this dog is being held on a chain or not.

Cancellation Certification

This was very useful to prove my situation to cancel my reservation without any late cancel penalty.

Broken itinerary

My family checked out the hotel in very early monring to catch up the shuttle bus for Beauvais airport.
(Call taxi fare : 15 Euro) + (shuttle bus fare : 13 euro x 3 = 39 euro) = 54 euro
That's all? Not at all.
Over weight charge for baggage = about 25 Euro x 2 = 50 Euro.
My wife said to me at check-in counter, "Is this real low price air ticket????" In any crisis situation I can not give up this air ticket because i paid tremendous extra charge to change flight schedule already except for above cost. I could not tell this to her. T.T;; By the way, finally we took boading tickets and only need to wait for flight in small barn gate of Beauvais airport. About 2 hour later, our colleagues(passengers for same flight)pass the gate and then arrived at baggage claim belt..... T.T;; with just simple and kind notice announcement "Airport Strike was happened in italy in this morning, so all flights for ROME were cancelled."
".........."
I don't have any idea. My wife didn't blame me anymore because also she was busy to find out any exit to escape here......

Then,
My hotel reservations?
My rent a car reservation?
My joyfull itinerary in italy?
After return back to paris again, what we have to do?????

review about low-price airline

In these days, there are so many price competitive airline in europe like as RyanAir and Ezjet. As we submit with that price, we have to agree with uncomfortable things that are non-flexible trip schedule, poor airport facilities and limited choise or high-cost transportation to take subunbar airport. Beyond all these, I felt in their web because of booking change. Everytime they promote tickets with incredible price, 1-euro in online ticketing shop. After we have ticket with 1 euro we never re-consider about the fixed schedule. Even if you have any different idea against to your wife, you should come down and take it easy. Once you visit online shop to change your air schedule, no more saving.
As I know there are 2 airlines aviation from Paris to Rome. they are RyanAir and Ezjet. the differentitations between two are airport location and departing time from paris. Ezjet use Olry airport of Paris that could be taken just half hour from southern part of Paris. However, the flight time is about 8:30 AM. However, RyanAir use Beauvais airport that is far about 50 miles from Paris and takes 1 hr 30 min by shuttle bus. In addition to this, the location of terminal for this shuttle bus is not light thing to us.

Departure from terminal 6:30 AM
Arriving at Beauvias aiport 7:45 AM
Departing Flight for Rome Ciampino airport 9:30 AM

Fare : 13 Euro (Same fare for kids T.T;;)
