9th September – Fun in the sun!!!
What a beautiful day it is at Coolangatta today! Stiffy Bear and Wee Bear decided to go for a walk to Greenmount Beach. This is a favourite place for children to swim.
Mummy had to be very patient because they take a long time to walk anywhere. Their little legs look like they are moving fast but they only take tiny little steps. Make sure you don’t get too much sun Stiffy Bear. That’s a good idea, sit in the shade whenever you can.
But if you can’t be in the shade, you should wear your sunglasses and a hat when you can. Stiffy Bear and Wee Bear are just about to have a swim, so they have taken their hats off. The water looks nice in the Beach House pool at Coolangatta. They will have to get their swimming togs on…
Keep a lookout as you might see Stiffy Bear at a beach you visit.

28th July 2018 – The last miles…
Stiffy Bear is back with more stories about his cruise up the Queensland Coast…
After Port Douglas, we are basically on our way home!
One more stop… and this has got to be the smallest inhabited island. Willis Island is 450 kilometres east of Cairns. It is 500 metres long and only 150 metres wide.
Look at how little it is!
From here we just have a couple of days to go. But first mummy got to be a finalist in “The Voice of the Ocean” competition. Boy oh Boy! She looks a little bit scared…
She looks a lot happier afterwards.
On our last night, we got to go to the balloon drop. Wow! That was so much fun. Hundreds of balloons and we got to jump on them and bust them!
Last day and here we go back under the Gateway Bridge and back to Brisbane. What fun!!!! Can’t wait to do that again…………….

30th June 2018 – Where is the bear… and who is Douglas?
Stiffy Bear is back with more stories about his cruise up the Queensland Coast…
Next port – Port Douglas! It was a beautiful day… first thing most of us did was go straight to the beach. There was a special area you had to swim in to make sure you didn’t get stung by any jellyfish. The man at the beach told me they can really hurt.
The beach was really wide and it didn’t have waves like we are used to at Coolangatta. It was really hot though, so everyone went for a swim to cool off.
The next thing we did was go on a steam train ride. Here is a picture of the man turning the train around so it can go the other way. They have to do this at each end. This is the Ballyhooley Steam Railway. It goes from the Marina to St Crispin’s Station.
My daddy looks like he is going to drive! I hope he has a train driving licence… 
It sure is a pretty place at the other end.
The lady told us that there is a little crocodile in the lake. He got washed in during the floods and his name is “Snappy”.
Anyway, we had a lovely time… and here comes our train to take us back to the Marina.
We were on our way back to the ship, when suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, I spotted a little Teddy.
His name is Douglas and he is my new friend. He is a world traveller and so he decided to come with us back to the ship.

2nd June 2018 – How is Mr Stiffmeister’s cruise going?
Continuing on from last week, Stiffy Bear has been on a Princess Cruise up the Queensland Coast.
Last week he told you about his stop in Sydney. After Sydney the boat headed north for Airlie Beach. This is the port that leads to the Whitsunday Islands. Along the way we went right by Coolangatta (Stiffy Bear’s home). Here is a photo as we went by… the sun was just setting as we sailed by.
There was a big party that night and we all know that teddy bears love parties. Stiffy and Wee Bear decided it was a good night to go looking for him… and there he was, STANLEY the stowaway bear. Boy oh Boy! He looks like the captain!

17th April 2018 – What has Mr Stiffmeister been up to today?
Yes it is time to have a look to see what Mr Stiffmeister has been up to.
Stiffy Bear, as he is affectionately known, is not going to be able to post anything for a couple of weeks.
The reason is very exciting… he is going on a cruise!
He will fill you in on all his adventures when he gets back.
The last time Stiffy Bear was on a ship was when he came from England to Australia. Here is the page from his story book to show you.
