Recently Colin and I have been plotting and planning an outback trip with our eldest son Steven and we had been thinking about purchasing or hiring a four wheel drive camper trailer. Even if we did that there would still not be enough room for five adults (my sister and husband are considering joining in) so Paul dug out his family tent and gave us a demonstration on how easy it was to put up and how much room was inside it. This tent was used so long ago that Kayla, the five year old, does not even remember it!
I encouraged the children to help Daddy and Grandad put the tent up - Kayla put in a couple of tent pegs and Grandad pushed them in further and both little girls helped zip and unzip the doors and windows and roll up the screens and generally had a great time in this wonderful big canvas cubby house!
The tent has two rooms, one of which is small enough for a single sleeping bag and the children thought this was the best part especially when granny joined them in there and we all lay down and pretended to go to sleep! It was a shame we had to pull it all down again and pack it away!

That looks a roomy tent! How long did it take to put up? Would we have something soft to sleep on?!! Sue
