When my partner and I were out on the Land Nav stage for FS2010, he asked in his thick Irish accent:
"Paul. Do remember the mozzies being this bad in the jungle?", as I looked at his back, which was totally infested with colonies of mosquitos fighting for a spot on the portions of his uniform that were tight on his shoulders.
"Nooo! I don't remember them like this at all."
There are 188,000 lakes in Finland, and the sun really doesn't go down in the summer. For 9 months of the year, it's frozen over, but June, July, and August are mosquito cloud season, especially the more north you go. I love the winter for very important reasons, and lack of bugs is at the top of my list.
