We always camped at the lake with friends or family. The adults would pitch one big tent for all the kids to sleep in and we loved that. We spent all day on the water tubing, jet skiing, and wake boarding. Then we would eat a huge meal and stay up way too late goofing off.

We'd sleep at a nearby motel at night but then set up our stuff by the water and cook/eat/fish/play all day long. mrsjyw on "What were your camping trips like growing up?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-were-your-camping-trips-like-growing-up#post-1472981 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 11:41:35 +0000 mrsjyw 1472981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Exactly like yours! :) My parents are HUGE nature freaks and would take us every year almost! That and places like Mackinac Island and Niagara Falls :) I LOVE camping and can't wait to take DS in the future!

Usually in the mountains (even in the snow), but also at the beach. Ideally it was near water of some kind, whether it was a small brook or a huge lake. We always pitched a big tent that took hours to set up, toasted marshmallows on wire hangars, cooked potatoes wrapped in foil in the campfire, ate obscene amounts of food cooked on our portable gas range, and just enjoyed nature. I'm so excited to take Charlie and Olive camping this summer! We're all going to sleep in one tent together, so that'll be a new experience for us! What were your camping trips like growing up?
