Daizey 0 #1 May 29, 2003 Have you ever heard the sayings "ya live and learn" and "you're young, you'll learn"? At this moment in time they couldn't be more true! Mia and I knew we'd learn a lot on our trip to perris, but, well, we never expected it to be liek this. We've found tat tents get really hot and that causes many problems! Here's what happens when you take 2 girls out of New York City and put them in Tent City for a week. We've certainly learned a lot...like..... -Deoderant will melt-and drip-all over, everything...including your leg -Don't try and think that if 1 deoderant melted, the other will be fine...it won't be and it will make a really big mess when you try and use it! -penut butter acually should be refrgerated. Unless of course you want penut soup -if you don't shut the door to your tent, you will end up with 1,000 bugs in it! -apples go bad really fast-and they will make you really sick if you eat one of them -Flashlights tend to help in the dark-unfortunately-we forgot ours and now we are relying on the pool lights to see - I you try to leave bread out to cool off, it will turn into a white flat rock -money really does help-especially when all of the food you have either rots or turns to soup or rock due to the heat...too bad most of the $ is gone too -Bring extra blankets and an air conditioner because you will freeze at night and boil in the morning -don't let weird guys who come to the DZ without shirts on Bikes and get kicked out of the bar see you come out of a tent ...or overhear that you like tequila...they will invite themsleves over -don't leave you spf 45 that you typically burn through in Vikings car and then expect some cheap spf 25 to do the job -buying a gallon of water as your only source of hydration and leaving it outside in the sun is not a smart idea -don't expect to be able to fit 3 people plus a months worth of clothes and "necessities" in a 3 person tent...why? because there are only 2 of us and we don't fit! -food mistakenly left outside the tent tends to attract animals we never knew existed in California Having a great time here in Perris!

wmw999 2,120 #5 May 29, 2003 Those lessons are largely learned the wrong way. The nice thing is that learning those now gives you the skill to think ahead, and avoid learning harder ones later. Not to mention all the great stories you can tell. I had to spend the night in the paddy wagon in France once, because the campground hadn't opened yet, and the train station was too scary.

ltdiver 3 #13 May 29, 2003 This is about the funniest thing I've read all day. Thanks for the laughs, it helps a sickie here feel -lots- better! I can ID with your adventure. I always take my own food with me on road trips. Some people just don't understand this, as they grew up grazing from restaurant to restaurant on a vacation. I like spending the $$ on other fun stuff instead... ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
