Honestly, I'm not a fan but DH loves it. I will suck it up and go someday as a family though.
Do you like camping?

I do - we went a lot when I was a kid. We're actually taking a camping trip at the end of this month.

I like glamping.
You know, at a hotel. With air conditioning, hot water and somewhere for me to plug in my flat iron. And cable.

I LOVE camping! DH and I go a few times a summer in our tent but with a LO we will have to upgrade to a tent trailer. I went lots with my family as a kid and it just brings back such great memories!

Ehhh. We went every summer as a kid for an entire week and I loved it up until adolescence. I guess I don't mind tent camping for a couple of nights as long as I have an air mattress and there's a clean bathroom. Roughing it any more than that is not really my cup of tea. SO would love to just camp out in the wild and live off the land for a while if he could...no thanks! I need running water and I refuse to poop in the woods.
I do love s'mores though!

@irunforfun: s'mores are the reason why I like camping!
We go a few times a year. It's a lot of work but we have always have a ton of fun (I really just go for the s'mores though)

nope, i don't get the point! but DH went camping often as a child and looooooooves it so i try my best to indulge him at least 1x a year. i'm sure we'll end up taking LO often when she is old enough. great.

So long as the weather is comfortable, there are facilities (running water, hot shower, electricity) very close by & plenty of s'mores. Otherwise, no. However, I'm told that's not really *camping*. Heh

Love it! We go at least twice a year. I want to go more though! Lo has already been 3 times in her 20 months being here. She also loves it

Not particularly, I'm a terrible sleeper under normal circumstances, so it's pretty non existent while camping, which makes it not so enjoyable, plus I think its sort of a lot of work for the minimal amount of fun I have.

I love camping!! Not sure of the logistics of camping with a LO, but i'm looking forward to family camping trips. I think it's fun!

Loooove it. We just actually need to plan and execute a trip this year!

@Mrs. Jump Rope: This is what I was going to say. Glamping I'm all about
Camping not so much. Butttt we go every year with DH's family and he loves it so we'll do it. We camp in the summer and the extreme heat makes it all the more "fun." Last year when we camped I was 6 months pregnant and miserable. This year ill be 5 months pregnant with a 9 month old. I'm not very excited

yup! love camping! last year we bought a new family sized tent (DH's head & toes touched the sides of our old tent, haha, poor thing!) and we can't wait to try it out when it warms up, though it'll probably seem like over kill for just the two of us =D

Love it. Used to be a girl guide
ETA: id *prefer* to be at a campsite with washroom facilities but its not a total deal breaker.
admin / watermelon / 14210 posts
looove it. can't wait to take the kids. we used to go once a month when i was a kid!
hostess / wonderful persimmon / 25556 posts
We do! I can't wait until Megan is older and can enjoy it!! I think we'll go next summer.

I like the idea of it, then remember that I prefer a toilet and a comfy bed. From time to time I like to remind myself why I appreciate sleeping and peeing indoors
I'd rather hike a great distance outside, and end up indoors for the night.

I think I like the idea of it more than the actual camping. I would really like to be more outdoorsy so maybe we'll become a camping family!

@lemondrop: Same! I love being outside and nature and all that, but not when I'm sleeping.

LOVE it!! Wish the weather was nicer over the summer so we could do summer camping, but its quickly getting to the end of camping season. Can't wait for the Fall!
blogger / pomegranate / 3300 posts
Love it. We are taking the kids in June. I'm super excited.

No. i've tried and I love being with friends and eating camp food, but the actual act of camping (not showering, not sleeping in my bed, going to the bathroom in an outhouse)...it's not for me.

I've actually never been camping. My mom grew up camping all the time and said she would never make her family go because she disliked it. DH grew up going and really likes it, so I'm sure we'll go at some point.

We are taking our first family camping trip next weekend, weather permitting!

I absolutely love camping. It is one of my favorite things to do, ever! Dh bought me an awesome tent our first Valentine's day together.
We haven't been since we had a baby but once our kids are older we will for sure be camping multiple times a year.
.I took dh on his very first camping trip...he liked it!

Theoretically, yes. It was a lot more fun as a kid when my mom did all the work, lol. I think I will enjoy it more again as the kids get a little older and I don't have to watch them every second.

@.twist.: sounds like my kind of camping! haha
i HATE camping...always have! every year my dad took my siblings camping...i stayed home with my mom!!! i'll go every couple of years, just to appease my dad/DH. i just don't like it haha
pomelo / 5469 posts
I hate camping. I can tolerate it for 1 or 2 nights so long as there are exceptionally nice toilet/shower facilities. I never feel clean when I go camping, that's my problem.

i LOVE camping.
DH surprised me and took me on a camping trip a few summers back, we got rained out!!!
GOLD / wonderful pomegranate / 28905 posts
I've never been camping camping but I want to try it soon!
pomegranate / 3895 posts
Nope. My motto is "I love not camping."
I do like hiking and we've done a few different hiking trips, but I stipulate that if I'm going to be outside all day I'm going to stay somewhere fairly luxurious
DH does a guys camping weekend every year. That's usually the same weekend that I go to visit my BFF in NYC.
