Been a few years since I've taken the girls proper camping. The girls (9 & 11) were going to rough it inder the fly for the night but only the 11 year old decided to actually do it.

Bit chilly, but a good time was had by all.

Roughing it under a tarp? Was pretty cold for the past two nights! Well done!

    Where'd you go? There's not many places you can have a fire anymore.

    There is are fire pits at this camp site, there is a posted 'camping permitted, no fires' sign for the overflow in the private land next door.

    Best memories of my childhood were camping out in the wild with my family.

    Nice, looks like you had a good time!

    I spent too long working out what word "thake" was supposed to be, and I'm still not sure 😅
