Glamping
The other day, I woke up in the middle of the night to my TV blaring in the background. With one eye open, I didn't know if I was dreaming or not when I saw a news story on what is called "Glamping". Basically, it stands for "Glamorous Camping", and can be associated with an expensive camping experience, such as silk lined tents filled with amenities that far exceed anything most campers have ever seen. Apparently, glamping is becoming more and more popular in England, and making it's way over to the US. I look forward to seeing Camping Reviews at CampRate.com from people like those on the news story who said $10,000 to $40,000 for a camping trip is very affordable. Glamping looks interesting, but I guess I'll stick with my garage sale tent for now.
