dont feel too bad. I can see both sides to be honest, being woken at 5am by a wailing child isnt so great whoever you are!

BUT yu shouldnt be put off camping. Can I just ask did you settle your children at the same time you woud have at home? I always found mine woke with the dawn unless we kept them up an hour or so later than bedtime at home becuase light coming in would waken them unless they were shattered, that might be worth trying next time you camp

No, at home they go dwon at seven.  At the weekend lewis went down at about nine. It was difficult because we knew when he woke in the morning that he was still tired, but hey he was in (up) mode.  We tried to comfort him ( and those around us) but to no avail, so we all had a long and tiring day ahead ( apart fro him of course who fell alseep in his buggy grrrrrrrrr lol.
