  1. The scenario from Solid Ground Shelters is cool. I can imagine using it for weddings, in fact. Just tell them where to show up and they’ll pitch your luxury tent for you, including everything you need.

  2. However, some of us out there are a little more delicate than others and prefer the good life, i.e. not fans of camping, but this does not mean that you have to miss out on the wondrous pleasure of experiencing the New Zealand wilderness first hand.
