Mumbai

Hey everyone I decided to make a post after the recent events in Mumbai, India. It was a very unfortunate what unfolded there. They hit a bunch of the tourist locations and we visited almost all of them while we were tourists in Mumbai. Below is a description of the pictures I posted in order- 1. The Taj Hotel in Mumbai on fire during the attacks, we took many pictures in front of this building and we tried to book a room, but it was WAY out of our price range ~$400 or 1700 INR . 2. A picture of Leopold's cafe a couple days after the attacks. Zak and I ate there (I ate the garlic bread) and we ran into our flight attendants from our flight from JFK. This is very very popular with tourists, it is a must see, I do no know why, maybe because it is so old (1871). 3. A picture we took of the Taj Hotel it was founded in 1903. 4. Zak in front of the Taj Hotel. 5. Zak and I in front of the Taj Hotel.

B-Bite Free and Preventing Malaria

Throughout my travels in India, Panama, and the mountains of Puerto Rico I have not found a better insect repellent than B-Bite Free - www.bbitefree.com . This product is the longest lasting, best performing bug spray I have ever used. B-Bite Free contains 98.11% Deet, which is the only proven ingredient to repel bugs especially mosquitoes and ticks. The higher percentage of Deet the longer the product will last. B-Bite Free lasts at least 3 times longer than the other insect repellents that I have used. In India, I decided not to take malaria pills because I knew I had the best prevention to mosquito carrying diseases like Lyme Disease, Malaria, and West Nile Disease. Malaria pills tend to have very adverse side-effects. India is one of the hardest hit areas by Malaria in the entire world, and I persevered due to this long lasting product, B-Bite Free. Also, I noticed on their website - www.bbitefree.com - that it is a veteran-formed small business. I always prefer to give my business to veterans and small business owners because they are the backbone of our society. The company's name is Faulkwood Chemical LLC, it is based somewhere in Florida. I pulled this pictures of the product off of their website- www.bbitefree.com -
