Fortunately/unfortunately

Hey everyone, I like playing games, so I thought that I would start one that I sometimes play with the pre-schoolers at work. It's called "fortunately/ unfortunately". The aim of the game is tell and create a story, kind of like a serial, but the beginning of each sentence or paragraph has to be with words fortunately or unfortunately. The trick is that they have to alternate. It can be a creative, silly or just plain crazy. But the aim is to keep the story going. I'm going to start with.....

It was a bright sunny morning, so today I went to the beach. Unfortunately everyone else had the same idea as I did, but.....

Next person is to continue the story starting with fortunately.

Feel free to join in!

unfortunately it was only after I hopped in his car I realised it wasn't who I thought. I'm now panicking about being abducted by a mass murderer or someone similar. My imagination is sending me crazy!!!

Fortunately, he had to stop at a red light so I jumped out, ran onto the road, got knocked over by a slow moving car, now I'm in an ambulance, I feel safe now.
