Right as we started traveling, Operation EF was launched and it quickly turned to a FE war with Iran. Gas prices shot up, and even now they are about 30% higher.

Luckily for us, high petrol prices are not a major problem. But millions of folks across the world are needlessly struggling as a result, including some of our family.
