You won’t see one of these at a Jellystone Park anytime soon, but we think it’s a unique way for people to enjoy the outdoors. These are being rented in France for 400 pounds a night ($640 US dollars!) Here’s an excerpt from the Daily Mail article.
Anybody trying these outdoor gadgets might want to bring a pair of curtains. For although they look and feel more like giant goldfish bowls, these latest inventions are actually totally see-through inflatable tents. With incredible panoramic views of the surrounding countryside, the bizarre transparent structures are designed to get people as close to nature as possible.
