Camping Sounds Fun!

Few weeks ago, my husband's friend, who he used to work with in the Navy, sent him a text message asking if he wants to go on a camping trip before the summer ends. He thought it was a great idea to have the chance to do something as fun as camping and actually be out of the house and enjoy the outdoors. We've actually talked about camping but had always been put on hold because of me being pregnant. I know it's going to be a whole lot of fun and definitely would be a new experience for the both of us as a couple. We haven't done such thing, yet ever since we got married and we're both excited and looking forward to go on a camping trip here soon.

With my husband being in the military, I trust that he has all the knowledge about camping and how to actually survive in the middle of nowhere. I, on the other hand, only know so much about it. I haven't done it before so the only things I know about it are the ones I've learned pretty much from him. I even thought camping is as easy as how fun it sounds but to my surprise, there's so much a person needs to know; from stuff you need to bring with you to knowing about basic survival techniques in case of emergency situations. I thought before, as long as you've got tent, comfortable sleeping bags to sleep in, pillow and blanket, extra clothes, food and water, some important tools such as knife, matches to start fire, and cooking utensils and some kitchen ware (plate, spoon, fork, and drinking glass), you're good to go. But I was wrong! I never thought there's so much to learn and I'm just glad I learned about all this before actually going on my first ever camping trip. So, whenever we get the chance to, I already know what to expect and of course, what to pack along with us. I will make sure we got everything so we don't have to worry about a thing and actually just enjoy and relish the moment together.
