I am so excited for this trip, even if we are camping. I purchased a HUGE air mattress for myself and smaller ones for the kids and a queen size sleeping bag for me. I may actually like camping again! Woohoo!!!
So does that mean no tent trailer?
You all are going to have soooooo much fun! I' envious, but enjoy! We want to do half dome when the kids are big.
No tent trailer! I'm actually going to use the family size tent I have and have only used once in 10 years. I guess I should probably set it up and make sure it's going to work! It will be the hilton of tent set ups once I get the beds and everything in there! I'm almost excited!
