Getting injured while on vacation, my poor boy

So we're in OH for my high school reunion, and visiting my family. My brother so kindly brings one of his bikes down to our parents' house for my son to ride. He's thrilled b/c it has gears, and although it's a bit big for him, he masters it pretty quickly. Wednesday night hubby and I leave to go pick up a few more groceries for dinner and in the 20min we're gone, his little sister cuts him off riding her tricycle, causing him to swerve and crash down the 15ft rocky embankment into the creek below at full speed (he tried to brake by pedaling backwards like his bike at home, forgetting about the hand brakes in the short span he had to do something).

One broken wrist, one deeply bruised hip, mild concussion, lacerated elbow requiring 6 stitches, and several other abrasions and cuts (and a 5mm sized rock dug out of his skull) later, and we've spent a good portion of our vacation at Children's Hospital (although, Cinti is the place to do it - one of the best Children's Hospitals in the country!). Poor kid. We're thankful it wasn't any worse than it is, and while he's upset that swimming is ruined for the rest of the vacation, and beyond, he's happily plunked himself in front of the idiot box since he's to be resting and recovering.

It got me to thinking, has anyone else suffered a major injury while on vacation? What happened and what did you do? One of my colleagues at my former job told me about a time in HI when he stepped on a sea urchin while snorkeling and rather than having the poisonous spines removed, he left them in b/c he knew he wouldn't be allowed to go scuba diving the rest of the trip. He LIVES for scuba diving (is even certified in cave diving). He was in bad shape by the time the took the barbs out, but doesn't regret his decision (although his wife wasn't happy with him at all). Does anyone have any memorable stories to relate (besides VL, who I'm sure has plenty!)?
