We just got back from our first overnight camping trip. We went to Sycamore Canyon at Point Mugu State Park. It is only a half hour from our house which made for a short drive. Kim endured the trip, while the rest of us had a great time. Actually, Kim seemed to be smiling a lot and having a good time, despite the sleeping on the ground, hair smelling like smoke, and dirt everywhere. The surrounding area of the camp had been burnt by the fire earlier this year, but the campsite were for the most part saved. The beach was a short walk. However, the tides were not very kid friendly so we spent most the time playing in the sand. When not at the beach the kids enjoyed riding bikes, climbing trees and playing in the dirt. They did also help with some of the chores like putting up the tent and doing dishes. the kids had no problems sleeping at night and woke up with big smiles ready for hot cocoa.
