A few years back, a Foreign Service buddy of mine got transferred from Jeddah to Rabat. Before leaving Saudi Arabia, he made arrangements to buy a new car from one of the bases in Spain. After picking the car up, they headed south to Gibraltar. They stopped at a convenience store for gas and snacks. They got about an hour south before they noticed that they’d left their youngest son back there. They had to keep heading south until they found an exit ramp and turned back around to pick the boy up. He was scared and pi$$ed.
