Clothing, gear, and playthings to use when camping by the lake.

Once the tent was safely set up, we decided to try stand-up paddle (SUP), a popular activity nowadays. SUP is easier than surfing and more convenient than kayaking because you paddle on an inflated board. It can be done anywhere on the water's edge, whether in the ocean or on a river, but lakes with few waves are especially good for beginners.

Although it was the first time for Afro-kun (CHABI) to try SUP, he was able to go out to sea easily thanks to the high buoyancy of the board. However, it was a bit too much for him to stand up on the board. But it was all right. If he wears plunge divers, even if he sinks, he will be dry in no time. Still, he had a nice smile on his face.

After Afro-kun survived the SUP, the four of us enjoyed a relaxing card game in the tent. The Booby Bird Nest is fully mesh and well-ventilated, so it's cool even in the middle of summer. The three large pockets inside can also be used to store playthings, snacks, and other items essential for tent life. Anyway, if you get caught, you'll be punished. Let's decide who will be in charge of cleaning up after dinner.

After playing cards for a while, we prepared for dinner before the sun went down. Tonight's menu is ratatouille and soup curry, says Banana. The new skillet and Dutch oven are enameled on the inside, so they do not stick or rust even if oil or seasoning is used.

Incidentally, the key to success is to prepare each dish at home, and to limit yourself to cutting and warming vegetables locally. The finishing touch is to drop some cheese on the ratatouille and sear it, and top the soup curry with boiled eggs. We toasted with a bottle of beer that had been chilled in the cooler box! Yum! and in no time at all the sake and food disappeared.

With full bellies in their stomachs, the group takes a bench by the lake to chill out. The group sat on a bench by the lake and chilled out, looking at the lake and the sky in the twilight while thinking about the day. As they talked about "It's getting a little cold," or "Let's make some coffee," they started throwing rocks. Before we knew it, a serious battle had begun to see how many times we could find a thin pebble and run out of water.

I'll do it too! Miho, the red-hot girl, threw a pebble with all her might and it hit Banana-kun's trademark head. Banana-kun could not hide his surprise and laughter. Banana-kun could not hide his surprise, and everyone could not hold back their laughter. It was a nice happening.

This time, all four of us wore amphibious shorts as a base, along with a standard logo T-shirt and a new patterned aloha shirt. When it gets a little chilly, we put on a coach jacket (Afro-kun) or a denim jacket (Megane-kun ［KSK］).

Because of the unusual nature of camping, colorful aloha shirts like Miho's are also a good choice. And Banana's camping vest is also worthy of special mention. It is a "wearable bag" with large pockets that can hold gloves, a smartphone, and other items essential for camping. It is a unique piece of clothing that allows you to create a unique look while enjoying camping with nothing.
