Word Of The Day - Glamping

Here's an idea that has been long in coming. Sick of leaky tents? Tired of the threat of wild animals, chopping wood, breaking nails, & trips to the outhouse? Welcome to the world of glamping ~ glamorous camping.

Tour companies & resorts are now offering luxury camping packages where tents have Persian carpets, down duvets & electricity. There are saunas & hot tubs on site, & activities such as horseback riding & whale watching are offered & arranged for you.

Just think of the possibilities! No more smelly sleeping bags. No more doing without electrical appliances. No more sleeping on the ground on a thin pad.

That's just the thing for a lady of leisure like me. If you're planning on taking advantage of this new travel opportunity, don't forget your VISA card. Three-night packages at one resort in BC begin at $4,100 a person, double occupancy. Totally worth it, IMHO.

Now thing is what I call enjoying nature, Wilma-style!

I wonder if they put mints on your pillow, too?
