still catching up on last weekend. We went camping for the rest of last weekend and had the most incredible weather. We always say how the weather can pretty much make or break camping…and last year putting our monstrous tent away in the chucking it down rain almost had us fall out completely with the idea of camping…but…
this weekend it was better weather, in fact sun shining and fair all weekend. So camping became doable once again.
each night we had the most incredible 'kum-by-yah' type fire, marshmallow toasting, a little bit of singing and so so much chatting. Just does the soul good right?
this picture actually makes it look like the fire was really close to a tent…but it wasn't….much 🙂
kids running free..the absolute best bit about camping…….oh and did i mention the sunshine…
Another great thing about going camping with so many friends who also have children, is that the kids sort of go a bit ferrel and pack like.
and everyone mucks in, so you know, you might find yourself holding the hand of a kid other than your own, or trotting to the loo with a bunch of kids, none of whom are your own kids. Community living at its best (well…almost, totally at its best would probably include a five star hotel in my honest opinion!)…and for us, incidentally, community living really really works. Anything that ups the adult to child ratio has got to be a good thing.
Thinking perhaps of researching the kibbutz!
