My least favorite part of camping is the bugs. From spiders to mosquitos to lake flies, I am definitely not a fan. I have yet to find an effective mosquito repellent- have used different sprays, candles, sound devices, nothing seems to work.

I don't really like to go camping in the period of autumn when it is raining a lot and it is starting to get cold. I have nothing against cold, but wet and cold at the same time is not good. I have fallen ill a few times because of this.

For me its definately going home. On our last adventure we drug our lil camper up a gravel road through Bayou Country. bout half way up the road started getting muddy and fore we got where we were going we had picked up several hundred lbs of mud and gunk on our suv and camper. The front of the camper had a 6 inch coating on it from the tires. We had a wonderful trip, but 25 dollers at da car wash just to get te mud off then home for a finish wash. The thing is we would do it again in a heart beat the whole muddy mess was a grand adventure.

That will be the cooking part especially in rainy days. Since one can not cook under the tent, the rain seems to come immediately I set the fire own and put it out! drives me crazy to do the whole process again, but since family has to eat, they all help and I guess eventually foods get served.

My least favorite part of camping is in the summer time when its 90 degrees at night with 120% humidity.
