I was thinking about a new camper and this thought crossed my mind. How many of you guys go camping, whether in a camper or tent? I've been camping since 1998 and we started with a pop up trailer and currently have a trailer that has pop out bunks at each end and the rest is hard bodied

We go camping sometimes, as we have a 8-man tent. We take all sorts of things such as a cooking stove, pop-up chairs and wind-breakers for privacy

I have also been camping in a proper caravan (or trailer to you weird americans

) with my grandparents

I've always wanted to stay in a caravan, I have a few times when I was really little and have some really weird memories of it, such as having a big hole in my knee which looked like a sandwich.
But staying in a caravan would be really fun, you live where ever you park! How awesome would that be? But that would be the same as being on a ship, live whilst you sail.

Ah classic, a campfire just completes a day of camping, especially with smores. We actually took apart our gas grill to make smores one time due to a fire ban

I, myself, have never actually gone out camping, Since, Back in Ireland, you already had the countryside around you anyway. You could just go and explore for yourself

Though, I do know dad did used to have a VW Campervan, at one point. (One of the old style ones).

Cool, I love those camper vans, and they're worth a bit now too!

I and a friend once went camping, in a forest or whatever they call it, which ain't really big, was quite funny. We used a 3 man tent I think it was.

If your on an island in a cabin with electricity is that considered camping? $:-\$ If it is then I go "camping" for 2 weeks in Nove Scotia If not then im a city boy

Captain Spencer · « **Reply #12 on:** June 19, 2009, 15:11:11 »

I'm afraid not Matt, camping is when you go 'back to basics' by using a makeshift tent and being in the outdoors.

I myself love camping, the feeling of waking up to the birds sing and the fresh air is wonderful

Capt. Matt · « **Reply #13 on:** June 19, 2009, 15:48:50 »

Oh OK than I kinda agree with diamant Im not a roughing it kinda person Im more of a city boy type as I said

We always go camping each year (my family goes multipl times, but I go only once a year). We go at our secret place (I cannot tell) but we may be going to a campground this year.

My wife loves going up mountains with a tent strapped on her back.

I love waving her off.

For me, anything less than a 5 star hotel is slumming it.

Minime · « **Reply #17 on:** June 19, 2009, 23:04:31 »

you actually just have to walk for 10 minutes to go camping here.

--tractorman-- · « **Reply #18 on:** June 20, 2009, 08:16:55 »

I used to go... No time anymore...

I love to go camping in Sweden every year! First reason: I have to board a ship to come over! Second: it's allways close to the nature. Third: it is very relaxed there. Need more informations? Ask the Swedish Tourist Board

Oh, since a few years we have a caravan, formerly a mobil home (camper) and before that a very cosy tent.

Cheers and Heja Sverige

Hate to burst your bubble guys but...

I don't like Camping!

I can't even go on vacation for a week without at least FOUR computers.
