Dad says he has no regrets after spending nearly £600 on family holiday that lasted just half a day

This is one way to make the utmost of your day off 

 A pater has revealed that he has no regrets after dropping nearly£ 600 pounds on a 12- hour vacation with his family. 

 Chancing fun for all the family can frequently be complicated- and precious- which is why one pater

 decided to make sure his woman and children had a day to flash back and head out on a enough audacious day trip. 

 Like all great stories, 48- time-old Johnathan Wright’s day trip started by flourishing the family at 2 am so that he could head down to Luton Airport with woman , Anna, 45, and three children, Edward, 18, Oliver, 17 and Alexander, 14. 

 Their intended position? Prague, also known as the’ City of a Hundred Belts’. 

 The Wrights landed in the Czech capital at 9 am and wasted no time in setting off exploring, making stops at the megacity’s notorious Charles Bridge, Old Town Square( which features the iconic astronomical timepiece) and Prague Castle. 

” All the structures look like they’re from Disney, they were so beautiful,” Johnathan said of the megacity, adding that the family had to’ jam- pack their diary to take in all the sights. 

 Sightseeing was not the only thing the family enjoyed throughout the day either, with the Wrights having a quick power nap in the demesne as well as enjoying original beers like Staropramen and the notorious chimney stack galettes. 

 For Johnathan the highlight of the day was the riverboat voyage, which handed a welcome break from sightseeing. 

” It took us down from the heat of the day and gave us an occasion to duly look at the megacity,” he said. 

 In total, the family spent£ 584 on their trip, roughly£ 116 for each person, with air trip for the family of five making up the largest expenditure at£ 250. The remaining£ 334 was spent on refections, snacks, transport and the boat trip. 

 And the adventure clearly beats a day out at your closest theme demesne, cinema or shopping centre. 

 The family left Prague just before 10 pm and arrived back in the UK at 1115 pm( factoring in the one hour time difference) before eventually making it back home for 140 am. 

 Although his family did not feel too keen on embarking on another extreme day trip anytime soon, Jonathan said he would be further than happy to do one again. 

” I tête-à-tête would do it again but I am not sure my family would,” he said. 

” I suppose it’s great way of seeing new metropolises and also you do not have to spend as important as you would do on a proper vacation.” 

 So now you know what to do the coming time you have a day off with nothing to do. 

11 Actors Who Had a Chance to Portray a Legendary Character but Missed It

There are many ways to get a starring role. Some actors are selected during castings, while others are invited due to their popularity, which is what happened to Kate Winslet after Titanic. But not all auditions end successfully, or actors may not agree to offers made by film directors or producers. For example, Russell Crowe refused to star in Lord of the Rings because his intuition told him so.

At Bright Side, we imagined what our favorite characters would look like if other people portrayed them.

Daenerys Targaryen — Elizabeth Olsen

The actress, who has become famous for her role of the Scarlet Witch, failed auditions for the role of Mother of Dragons at the beginning of her career. Elizabeth Olsen later described what happened: “It was the most awkward audition I’d ever had. I was doing the Khaleesi speech when she comes out of the fire. It was awful. I didn’t get a callback.” As a result, Daenerys was played by Emilia Clarke.

Aragorn — Russell Crowe

Russell Crowe was asked once whether he regretted refusing to play Aragorn in the iconic trilogy, Lord of the Rings. The actor honestly replied that he had never thought about it and explained why he didn’t join the project. According to Crowe, Peter Jackson never really wanted to cast him for the role of Aragorn. Russell’s instinct told him that the director already had a suitable person in mind, so he politely declined the offer.

Ellie Sattler — Gwyneth Paltrow

In 1992, Gwyneth Paltrow wanted to get the role of Dr. Ellie Sattler. This part would’ve really helped the career of the aspiring actress because Jurassic Park had become a popular franchise. However, the future star failed, and the role went to Laura Dern.

James Bond — Henry Cavill

Now it’s hard to imagine anyone but the brilliant Daniel Craig playing this role, but Henry Cavill had a chance to become the new Agent 007. The actor was turned down because he was “a little chubby.” Cavill accepted the criticism with dignity and began to do more physical training, which helped him in his future career.

Jane Smith — Gwen Stefani

Popular singer Gwen Stefani is a truly versatile person. She almost landed the lead role in Mr. & Mrs. Smith. Stefani went to quite a few auditions, but eventually, she made a choice in favor of a musical career. And Jane Smith was played by the amazing Angelina Jolie.

Indiana Jones — Tom Selleck

The actor almost played the cheerful adventurer. Tom Selleck got the role of Indiana Jones, but by that time, he had already signed on for the Magnum, P.I. TV series, and the producers didn’t allow him to combine the 2 projects.

Prince Caspian — Nicholas Hoult

According to the actor, auditions for the role of Prince Caspian were the worst in his career. Nicholas Hoult was asked to speak with a Hispanic accent, like Puss in Boots from Shrek. Holt was embarrassed by this request because he wasn’t prepared for it. Eventually, the role went to British actor Ben Barnes, who was the perfect fit.

Viola De Lesseps — Kate Winslet

After the resounding success of TitanicKate Winslet received many offers from different film directors. She was invited to take part in Shakespeare in Love, but the actress refused because she wanted to work on more independent projects. Eventually, Gwyneth Paltrow landed the role. And she made the right choice, as she was awarded an Oscar for her performance.

Alex Munday — Angelina Jolie

We know from Angelina Jolie’s filmography that she loves to take part in action flicks. But still, there was a similar project the actress rejected. Drew Barrymore and Cameron Diaz did their best to convince Jolie to play their partner but to no avail.

Jolie felt she wasn’t right for this role and later explained her refusal: “I’m not at that point in my career, so audiences won’t have as much fun watching me run around in high heels chasing bad guys and flipping my hair.”

Patrick Bateman — Johnny Depp

Initially, American Psycho was supposed to be directed by Stuart Gordon. The director saw only Johnny Depp in the main role and persuaded him to take it. But the author of the novel abruptly changed his mind. He pulled Stuart Gordon’s rights to the book and called Johnny Depp a lightweight actor who was too old to play the part. Depp was 28 at the time.

Christian Grey — Charlie Hunnam

In 2013, all the newspapers announced the news of the year: Charlie Hunnam would star in the screen adaptation of Fifty Shades of Grey. But a few months later, the actor changed his mind and refused the role. As it turned out, Hunnam had a nervous breakdown due to his busy work schedule.

The actor realized that he wouldn’t be able to do his job properly, but this decision was very difficult for him. Hunnam hasn’t seen any of the films in the trilogy because he called that situation “the worst professional experience” of his life.
