Eastern Saudi Arabia
Camping , here , is almost always a family or large group thing. Friends will go together in several cars/trucks and may take EVERYTHING, including several kitchen sinks. Don't be surprised if you see a dish antena outside the large tent.

As I recall,there are still some Bedouins left.How does modern day society view these,Dashing,adventerous folks?
I see them and hear their accents, but their old ways is only a TV thing now. Much as Red Indians are in western movies. Many of them ARE modern society now. OK, some of them still own camels ..etc. but I doubt many of them can ride those camels across 10 miles of desert !
