Part of aging gracefully is to do it somewhere else. A new travel web site for baby-boomers called “Boomeropia” (www.boomeropia.com) boasts 30 travel categories. One that caught my eye was called “Glamping.”
As far as I can tell, glamping is roughing it in style. Destinations are places like the Adirondacks, where you can sleep in a yurt on an island in Upper St. Regis Lake, or Ayers Rock, Australia, where you can watch the sun rise from a king-sized bed in your “5-star” tent.
For the hard-core glampers, there’s the Three Camel Lodge in the middle of the Gobi Desert, Mongolia. You get to ride camels and horses, and eat in a ger. For you non-glampers, a ger is a really big yurt. The Khans ate in them all the time. You’d know that if you’d ever glamped anywhere.
