We have a tech tin that all phones and if we have an ipad for the kids it also goes in the tech tin. Not to be opened until we get home.
We like the old body clock reset we get when we go for more than a few days.
No alarm clock to wake up to,
Kids have free reign around the park and only come back when hungry,
Lots of Beer!!

De-stress

Keep attached to my country/outdoor upbringing......
Beer, port, campfires are just fringe benefits to the whole experience of getting away from the real life..... :cheers:

That's Cheating.
There's four in your list
All the above ;D ;D
Beer
Beach / Bush
Beef
Aside from all the above..
being in touch with your surroundings. e.g. when you are camping you notice whether the sky is clear and starry, whether it's a full moon, what time the sun goes down and how dark it is, when it comes up and first touches your tent in the morning.
The temperature, the wind and of course whether there might be any chance of rain.
Many of these things don't matter and go unnoticed from the comfort and security of your home. Camping brings you closer to nature.
