Glamping?






The girl scout inside of me is cringing, but is also really intrigued. Apparently glamping is becoming a travel trend (Well, it has been since 2008, but I hadn't heard of it until today...):
If the eco-friendly idea of falling asleep under the stars and roasting marshmallows around a campfire appeals to you, but the reality of pitching a tent and sleeping on bumpy ground does not, glamping, the new term being used for upscale — or glamorous — camping, could be your ideal green vacation.
--The New York Times
I'm pretty sure I prefer the old fashioned tent & sleeping bag, but who knows? Would you guys try it? Have you already tried it?
