I can’t stress enough how huge this tent is! I purchased one of these awhile back. It’s easy to setup (30 minutes taking your time) Just remember to bring a small generator to power your new Studio Apartment… Compared to a 4 person tent, this is 3x the size. It was great overall. The screen top allowed a panoramic view of the night sky, as you lay there, on the hard ground, mulling over your decision to “rough it” at 40+ years old. Also priceless was the petrified look on my sons face as we heard the sound of Owls calling across the field to each other most of the evening. Did I mention the soothing sounds of rock and roll echoing from the local bar at the bottom of the valley at 2AM. Totally worth it!!! Breaking down the next morning on 1.5 hours of sleep was also rather simple. Everything fit nicely back in the bag. If you need a huge tent this is a great find at a great price. You won’t be disappointed. I’d imagine you could also use this to setup a food tent for a BBQ as there is plenty of headroom and a 6’ table would fit easily in this tent.
You just reminded me of a joke:
Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson decide to go on a camping trip. After dinner and a bottle of wine, they lay down for the night, and go to sleep.
Some hours later, Holmes awoke and nudged his faithful friend.
“Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see.”
Watson replied, “I see millions of stars.”
“What does that tell you?”
Watson pondered for a minute.
“Astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets.”
“Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in Leo.”
“Horologically, I deduce that the time is approximately a quarter past three.”
“Theologically, I can see that God is all powerful and that we are small and insignificant.”
“Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow.”
“What does it tell you, Holmes?”
Holmes was silent for a minute, then spoke: “Watson, you idiot. Someone has stolen our tent!”
Yeah, after a couple times of camping for the first time in my 20s, I decided that my idea of roughing is a Motel 6.
Funny, that’s my idea of a fancy hotel!
I don’t go to hotels (since I don’t take vacation) but if I did, you know what they would have?
Bedbugs?
I should rephrase that.
If I were to ever go on a vacation, do you know what my ideal hotel would have?
Booze?
Or…
Two dark days for penguins:
Good thing there are no actual penguins there.
They deserve better than to be stuck in a hotel in the US.
At least in Maui they can relax:
