Happy Monday!
I just returned from a weekend trip to Disneyland, and for the first time, I definitely felt my age. 😅
Those caution signs on the roller coasters are there for a reason. ⚠️
While still one of my favorites, The Matterhorn ride (first photo) was a lot more “jerky” than I remembered it to be. My daughter even called it “the chiropractor’s ride”. The side to side turns legitimately can cause neck muscle strain and/or low back injury - similar enough to a car impact. 😮
With that being said, please use your judgement when you are at amusement parks. 🎢 There are plenty of other wonderful rides, such a It’s a Small World, that are enjoyable and more gentle on the body! 🎡
I’ve definitely seen my share of people coming in to see me after a trip to the amusement park. 😅 Play safe and have fun! And remember, all of that walking is a great way to get your daily steps in!
