A Transparent, Waterproof Bubble For Camping & Stargazing

Ocean

(via) The internet recently dangled this in front of us. While I don’t think we’d necessarily fork out the $2,000 (USD), for a waterproof, fire-retardant, transparent PVC camping hot box, we definitely wouldn’t say no to one. It would definitely change things up and add a new dimension to our road trips. We camp a lot, often very remotely where there’s little or no light pollution and the skies at night are unfathomably dense with stars. Staying in one of these on a hot night in the middle of nowhere (or a forest clearing in Tofino) would very likely be unforgettable. Comes in two sizes, either 3.3m or 4m in diameter, with a CE/UL blower and a just-in-case repair kit.
