So my camping weekend was great. Saturday morning we dumped our campervan at the dealer for repairs and we hike from there with our trekking gear to a campsite about 7km further out.
It wasn't a commercial campsite but a non-profit camping club that ocassionaly accepts visitors. They just had their opening weekend and had activities like a petanque tournament, a guided walk and ended the day with a BBQ.
We took part in the guided walk in the nearby forest and it was really chill and interesting. We did not have any meat with us for the barbeque so we made our "Knorr" pasta with our OmniLite Ti about when they started lighting their BBQs. Great timing it seemed because when we were done eating a big rainstorm passed by and they had to place the BBQs under a roof. It was funny how they were concerned with us like we wouldn't have enough to eat or something :-)
Anyway we had a free Sangria and played some games to end the evening.
Sleeping in our tent was a while ago and we forgot we still had to fix a condensation issue causing some drops to fall in our inner tent. We will probably just use a guide wire to guide the water out. It's probably a manufacturing issue in the Vaude Invenio UL 2P.
Anyway I had more issues with my cold blocking my nose during the night than sleeping on the somewhat hard mat with limited room.
Next day we went cycling with rented electric bicycles. Did about 42km and while it was with e-bikes I'm still feeling it in my legs.
Great weekend and glad I used my tent again after 2 years :-)
