camping

The last weekend in June we went camping with Brooke & Daryl and Larke & Luis (courtesy of Larke's planning :). I can't even tell you where we went, because I still have 0 sense of direction here, but it was way way way up in the mountains. We left Saturday morning and came home late Sunday morning. One night was the perfect length. We each brought a meal to prepare - we did sandwiches for lunch, Larke and Luis did hamburgers for dinner, and Brooke and Daryl did pancakes/bacon/eggs for breakfast (love breakfast food.) and spent the day/night playing "Rate your Mate" and talking. I was a little terrified once we got into the mountains (what if a bear ate us?!) but it turned out to be really fun and just the perfect getaway I needed.

Campfires weren't allowed (as per the devastating fires all over out here), but we still ended up sitting around the fire pit haha. To make us feel less silly we put a lantern in the middle of us after it got dark.

Can you guess which tent belongs to who? Ours is the front left, Larke and Luis' is the brand new one in the back. And the huge sophisticated tent on the right is Brooke and Daryl's haha. It was pretty awesome. Surprisingly it was really hot in our tents during the night. I was expecting to be freezing (because when was girls camp ever not freezing??) so I loved it.
