It has been constantly raining ALL day today! with no sign of it clearing up for (what is broadcast) two weeks. We are bitterly disappointed that the road from Cooktown to Cape York (the development track) has been closed again. This means that no grading of the roads have taken place either. From the Gold Coast we are suppose to be heading to Fraser Island but are now re thinking our plans because there may not be any point in its just going to rain the whole time we are there.
Due to the unfortunate weather we were suppose to be going to Seaworld, but instead spent the day wandering around shopping malls and doing what the kid would see as "boring" stuff. So for a very expensive treat we found a shop in Centro Surfers Paradise called "Make a bear workshop". The kids had a ball choosing their brand new teddy bear skin, filling it with stuffing and placing a heart inside their bear. Before they could put the heart inside the bear the shop assistant made them "put life" into their teddies by saying and doing the following: Hold your bears heart in your hand and rub it to make it nice and warm; pat your hands together strongly to make a strong heart beat. Hold your bears heart over your eye to ensure it always looks out for you; Hold your heart over your ear to ensure your bear always listens to you; Rub your bears heart over your chek to make sure your bear always has a little bit of cheekiness and then kiss your heart, make a wish and place it inside your teddy bear.
It was so so cute watching my babies follow these instructions. They have carried their teddies around EVERYWHERE today and are now both fast asleep in their beds with their teddies (plus hundreds more). Bella has so many teddies in her bed that you can barely spot her from the teddies LOL.

Anyone have any suggestions where we can go to escape the rain (especially if we don' end up on Fraser Island)??.......We are hoping for some inspiration!
