Trip Report The Story Comes ALIVE! *COMPLETED*

Hello again, my friends.

For nearly a decade it has been such a joy for me to write about 50 (yes, 50!) different trips that I have taken to WDW - including one that was virtual. ;)

The reason? You, the reader.

I don’t do trip reports for my own documentation. I have journals for that. I write because I love interacting with y’all. Your encouragement, humor, curiosity and even snark (*ahem* @amjt660) assure me that I am not alone in my crazy affection for Disney parks. A big thanks to each of you!

I am very fortunate to be a frequent visitor to WDW (despite what @Mr Ferret 88 believes, I do not live there!) and am entering a season of monthly visits. Trip reporting is time consuming (as those of you who’ve written can attest) but I’m not ready to completely give it up - yet.

What I’d like to do is keep this as an ongoing TR for the rest of 2023. It will be highlights and moments, with live posting as the goal. My story coming alive, so to speak.

First up is spring break with my favorite girl.

Followed closely by a getaway with my favorite guy.

There will be Magician meets. New experiences. And (as always) the unexpected.

I hope you’ll join the fun!

I was hungry when we arrived at TRON and when we disembarked I was downright hangry! Though it wouldn’t normally be my first choice for lunch, Cosmic Ray’s was the nearest QS so I quickly placed a mobile order and we headed in that direction.

As we approached the restaurant I pushed “I’m Here” and started up the steps towards the door…

…but I tripped, and face-planted on the concrete. Hard.

My right hand/wrist took the brunt of the fall, but both my palms were scraped and bloody, knees skinned and I could feel the wrist and leg bruises forming. At the moment I wasn’t sure which was worse - the embarrassment or the pain.

Woody and another guest asked if I was all right before helping me to stand. I was a bit shaken but was able to get up. I went straight to the restroom inside to tend to the wounds.

Ouch.

By then our mobile order was ready. I sat at a table while Woody got the food. Despite the pain from the fall I was still very hungry and downed my cheeseburger.

But when lunch was over, I knew where we had to go.

I'm sorry about your fall. I have fallen a few times at WDW. I have a few scars on my knees to show for it. I hope it is feeling better.

I’m so sorry. My wife face planted in the parking lot at HS this spring. A CM saw it happen and came running. Before she got up we had a security officer, an Orange County Sherif and Reedy Creek EMS. Thankfully she was not seriously hurt. Skinned knee and bruised arm. You will be sore tomorrow and worse the next day. Word to the wise, do not ride Big Thunder until the soreness is completely gone. We made that mistake. 😭

Hope you get some good rest tonight. And have a better day tomorrow my friend.
Oh my goodness! I hope you won't be too sore or bruised from your fall!
