Has rainy weather thrown a wrench in your date plans? Just because it's wet outside, doesn't mean the movie theater is your only alternative. Whether you're braving the outdoors or staying cozy at home, here are seven ideas for planning a memorable rainy-day date.
Rock out. Get your blood pumping and work up an appetite by going indoor rock climbing. Not only will you get a great workout, you'll also get to work on those important relationship skills of trust and healthy competition.
Singin' in the rain. The best way to beat the rainy-day blues is by listening to someone else sing them. Find a cozy jazz/blues club and melt under the warm, soothing sounds.
Get cookin'. Plan a romantic dinner at home, but throw the standard three-course meal out the window.
“Start with some yummy soup and go straight to warm brownies and freshly baked cookies.”

Take a class. Spend a rainy day or night learning something new. Sign up for an Italian cooking class, learn how to Samba or hone your painting skills.
Make memories. You know all those digital photos you've taken together over the years? It's time to take them off the computer and put them into a memory book or scrapbook. Spend time together picking out your favorite photos, from your first date to the dinner party you went to last week. Places like Target and Walgreens will let you upload your digital photos online and have them ready for pick up within an hour. Light a fire, make some hot cocoa and spend the evening on the living room floor cutting and pasting pictures and other memorabilia from your relationship into your very own scrapbook.
Go under water. Stay warm and dry as you stroll through the homes of creatures natural to wet environments. Spend the day looking at sharks, stingrays and other underwater creatures at your local aquarium.

Get a hawaiian pizza to go. Drive to the end of the flight line; park and watch the planes take off.

Regarding the scrapbooking idea, it might be fun IF you had a relationship with pix for &quot; cutting and pasting pictures and other memorabilia from your relationship into your very own scrapbook,&quot; but then you wouldn&#39;t be dating, would you?

turn up the air conditioning, snuggle up in bed and watch a nice rented movie.

Looking at pictures for a scrapbook you might get a man to do, actually cutting and pasting them into a scrapbook, -never. Also, Classes like cooking require pre-registration, how far into the forcast are we planning this?? Rainy Day activities have to be spontaneous. I loved the flight lane idea from Georgie.

Try Jenga by Candlelight and some Wine. Gets interesting and fun ;-)

I like the making memories idea. I&#39;m glad I&#39;m not the only photo album junkie!

I would snuggle up with hot cocoa and watch movies. The scarbooking idea is chessy.

If your guy actually agrees to the scrapbooking idea, it&#39;s time to find another guy! Sheesh!
