As many of you know, bugs, especially, Mosquitos love me. I’ve got about 6 bottles of various kids of bug repellant, most of which I forget to bring whenever we are venturing to the great outdoors.
Years ago, when we spent the summer in Israel, I had a great need for bug spray but there weren’t a lot of recognizable brands available. I think we were on the Sinai Peninsula so I did the best I could and bought the brand that seemed to say it was that Off! brand. Indeed it worked but had such an industrial scent to it that I never used it again.
Why did I pack it back and why did I save it all these years? I guess it was just the pure sentimental value of all the objects from that trip. And the fact that I don’t own many things with Arabic on them. The photo doesn’t show it well but there are a series of comical pictorial directions on the bottle that seem to indicate you should shower soon after using it.
Alas, I’ve been cleaning out our camping/travel supplies so this little gem had to go.
