Why Go Camping?

Tuesday August 14, 2007
Camping is for Lovers - You can turn any camping trip into an inexpensive romantic adventure. If you both enjoy the outdoors, consider going camping. Besides being peaceful and relaxing, it's inexpensive.
  • Start with a nice dinner. Cook something that's special. Set a fancy picnic table using a table cloth adorned with candles and flowers. While eating dinner, you can enjoy a nice bottle of wine.
  • After dinner, take a leisurely walk to a feature of the park like a lake, overlook or scenic view. Do some star gazing or watch the moon rise.
  • After your walk, share the warmth of a campfire, have a glass of wine, share stories, and maybe even make some s'mores.
  • Finally, when it comes time to retire, head to your tent. The rest is up to your imagination.
Enjoying the outdoors together can be very romantic.
