When I woke up today Lizzie told me that we were going shopping.
We got to this big shopping centre called The Florida Mall and went in search of a shop called Build-A- Bear. It shop was very big and filled with all kinds of lovely bear clothes and lots of bears to wear them. On closer inspection, I could see that all of the bears were a little under stuffed, in fact they were just skin!!!!! This was turning out to be a horror story. Lizzie chose a pink fluffy bear and then had to take it to the stuffing machine, where this lady (she looked so kind) put a tube in the bears back and pumped white stuffing in. I just squeezed my eyes tight and am so glad it wasn’t me! Then Lizzie chose a heart, made a wish and the ‘nice’ lady sewed up the bear. The lady told me that there is information inside the bear that enables him to be sent back to any Build-A-Bear shop and they can re-unite him with his owner. A bit like micro chipping for Teddy Bears, what a great idea. Lizzie fluffed up the new bears fur under an air-shower and then she had to complete and adoption process.
We sat down at a computer to fill in the new bears details and give new bear a name.
You’ll never guess what she called new bear?...............................LUCY!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was so happy I cried, and so did Nicki.
So now I had a special Teddy friend to play with and remind me of my Lucy back home.
After buying some clothes for Lucy and an outfit for me, we left the shops and went to Animal Kingdom.
where Nicki and Lizzie took me on a rollercoaster called Expedition Everest. It was scary, but great fun too!
After we left Animal Kingdom, we went off to a new hotel. Nicki said we were staying there that night as Jack (Lizzie’s Brother) and Alan were going off to get scared at a Halloween Party. I played with my friends while Lizzie and Nicki went swimming.
and then we all went for a walk around the hotel and took lots of photos….
Did you see the size of that puppy????
