Got the father in law coming to stay for a few weeks next month, and was planning on a few midweek camping trips (my weekend is Monday-Tuesday) till I remembered he was coming.
Have to see if he'd acutally be interested, but I though, what the hell we could take him along - we have a 2 bedroom tent after all and it's not like you need loads of kit for a short stay. Thing is, I know he suffers from a bit of a bad back, so I was thinking he might find it difficult to have to sleep so close to the floor (as in getting up and down).
I've never used camp beds - are they any good, and how high are they off the floor. Alternatively, would strapping two single airbeds together work? Those high rise airbeds are more than a little bit expensive to justify buying one for a one-off.
Recently someone did mention that she strapped two airbeds together to make a highrise, but I can't remember who. Hopefully she will answer your question cos I wanna know too . It sounds like a good idea to me.
Alternatively you could use a camp bed with an airbed on top of it for extra comfort.
When I was very pregnant I found it easier to get up and down from an airbed when I had a small folding stool next to the airbed to lever myself up and down with. Also to sit on while I put on my socks! Might be worth a try? Camp stools are very cheap.
I`ve got a certain degree of back problems, btw, and I find my Colemans airbed more comfortable than my bed at home.
