RECAP: Glamping With the Blondes of O.C.

Look, I'll be the first to admit that camping is my idea of the seventh circle of hell. But ... that's why I don't go.

The same can't be said for the glamourpusses of The Real Housewives of Orange County, who decided to brave Mother Nature on a one-night "glamping" trip. (FYI: Glamor + camping = glamping.) Three 'wives and a few stragglers stayed in cabins with electricity, and the front desk delivered just about anything they needed directly to the campsite. What could possibly go wrong in that scenario, you ask?

Well, the ladies proved that even when the blonde comes from a bottle, it doesn't mean they weren't meant to be one. Here are the top Blonde Moments from Glamping 2012, O.C. style:

"Glamping is what you do when you want to be close to nature without touching it," explained Alexis Bellino, who arranged the trip.

As Alexis packed, she said, "I'm down to Earth underneath all this hair and makeup. I'm going to try and keep it down to two suitcases."

Once they arrive, Alexis leaves a personal note for the ladies in their cabins: "With our crazy lives, our time is dire; so let's roast s'mores and sit by the fire!"

Vicki Gunvalson is not impressed with Alexis' poetry skills, and succinctly explains why:  "(Alexis) needed something that rhymed with fire, I guess. ... It's the misuse of a word, but that's OK. We all flumper sometimes. Er, flubber. Flumble. Fumble, tumble. We don't use the proper words sometimes." Vicki

When the front desk doesn't immediately deliver food and other items to the ladies' campsite, Alexis starts to come unhinged. "This is not glamping, this is full-on camping! We have no ice, there is no counter space in the bathroom for your makeup and there's bugs everywhere."

Heather Dubrow emerges from a cabin and explains what took her so long to join the party: "I was looking for a red wine glass. Since we are glamping, I was assuming we'd have all the proper accoutrements."

Approximately 45 seconds after Heather lights the campfire, Alexis pulls out her cell phone because she's afraid they won't be able to cook a meal. "I'm going to order a pizza, just in case."

A skunk rolls up on the ladies while they're outside. Vicki's daughter, Brianna, exclaims, "Does it know I'm taking a video?" Meanwhile, "Vicki is yelling and screaming and chasing after a skunk. I'm no woods expert, but I think that's something you don't do," says Heather.

When the night is over, Alexis calls the front desk (for the millionth time that day) to ask: "We are just wondering what we do with all our trash? ... Can you come get it now so no bears come get us?"
