A good friend had asked me a few weeks back if I'd go camping with her and a group of others for her birthday.... "Erm - ok" I say as I knew that I was planning my list of 30 and that I was putting camping on it. I probably should say that if you know me you would know very well that camping is so NOT my thing. I've never really been and I was happy this way, I really have no desire to sleep in a canvas room cocooned in a sleeping bag outside in the middle of nowhere - NO DESIRE AT ALL! Everyone tells me its fun, I'm thinking no no a 5 star resort, cocktails, swimming pools that is fun, sleeping outdoors and cooking on a fire not so much... So to grow as a person and try things that take me out of my comfort zone camping went on the list.
So I went and bought a tent, a sleeping bag, an esky, I'd even bought a camping pillow and a head torch. I was set, I was ready, oddly I was excited. Then the night before it rained, and then it rained some more and as we were about to set off camping got called off. Thankfully the organisers have postponed the trip and at some stage there will be camping. But alas I did not have to spend the weekend like this...
