I'm going to be camping for ~2months this May as my girl and I do a road trip across the country (Canada) and back. We need some help thinking of some games to keep us from hating each other.

So far all I've been able to think of is:
reading
bocce ball
cards
filming really stupid and annoying things that will only be funny/interesting to me & her

Help us think of more things to do!

EDIT: Keep in mind that there are only two of us going, and that we will not be bringing a computer or any electronic gaming devices.

Stupid game: watch the signs you pass and look for the letters to the alphabet in order. See how many miles it takes before you have seen A-Z.

Hint: J, Q, and Z are hard to spot...

i like spotting signs with multiples of seven distances on them (esp your destination), the larger the better :D

besides entertainment, i find it difficult to plan logistics for a 2 month long camp trip.

my longest was a 4 day long canoe trip on seawater. the food we bought gave me some terrible constipation.

If it's going to be so boring, why are you going camping for two months?

Go backpacking through big cities or something...

Who said anything about it being boring?
We are going through every major Canadian city, and to most any interesting place in between as well. There will be a hell of a lot of downtime though, and we want to think of what we might fill that time with now as opposed to leaving having thought of nothing. ;)

If it weren't boring, the entertainment would be self-contained in the camping
