"Uno Más!" A "Gran" solo tour of WDW in January! - updated on 4/15/12

That sucks about your summer trip. Is there any way to take the other two? And maybe take your nephew at a different time?

I'm sorry your last day was so awful - there's a couple TRs that I was reading that were in MK on the same day and everyone says it was so crowded!

Did you ever figure out what was wrong? From my experience with foot/leg injuries (broken feet, tendonitis), most doctors don't really do much, mostly just tell you to RICE. It kind of sucks, but (especially with where I broke my foot), there was nothing that they could do (and it took some time to figure out what was the problem. Honestly, I'm not sure what else the first aid lady could have done, when comparing what my doctors did to what she could do). It is very frustrating, not being able to walk around/get yourself from place-to-place! I'm glad that the parking lot CMs were so helpful.

I just read through all your entries! It looks like you were enjoying doing whatever you wanted to do on your solo trip...until your leg pain interfered. How frustrating and disappointing!

I am interested to see how the rest of your last day went, especially traveling with your leg and weather issues.

Nah, my sister won't let them go unless all three go at once. She doesn't have custody of the oldest, so I was at the mercy of a man I've only met in person once. I know he knows the oldest has spent a ton of time with me, but maybe he just felt like he didn't know me well enough to let DNephew go to Florida with me. Either way, it's really too bad.

I read several TRs from that time with the same "holycowMK" after Obama left! Ha, should have known it would be crowded after that; just had to try to get in Splash, dang it!

As for my legs and feet, I have NO IDEA. It's been 3 months now and I still have pain in my right foot at the same place if I run too much. I really thought that the First Aid station would at least give me a cool place to put my feet up and ice my shins and feet, and possibly a wheelchair escort out the front gate since I was clearly very hurt, but they were very "ok, well, can't help ya". What did I really expect, though? I had walked in, I guess they expected me to walk out.

Hello! I still had a great trip, but those last few hours were BRUTAL! I know that I made the mistake of too much park hopping, too old shoes, and too much crammed into only a few days - my next trip will be much longer and I'll build in a few rest periods to keep from doing the same thing to myself! I'm planning on 5 nights and 6 days right now, staying at BWV so I can get to Epcot and HS quickly.

Wow, I'm so sorry about your experience. I really hope you can do your September trip and make up for January!
