"But you have heard of me" -Pirates of the Caribbean Curse of the Black Pearl
After Star Tours we set off through the Streets of America.
We saw Kim Possible and Ron with only a few kids around them, but our kids didn't want to stop. David tried to get Adam to go ask Kim where Monkey Fist was, but Adam wouldn't do it.
I did insist we stop for a Photopass photographer who then insisted that David and I get in the photo. I didn't want to, but I complied. Then I was annoyed when the photographer had us all put our fists on our heads as our "Mickey Ears." I thought that was silly and planned to just delete those pictures from our photo cd later, but the picture turned out really cute.
Down another empty street I asked everyone to pick a door to stand in front of.
I did not direct their poses! They did those all on their own. Joey's hiding from the paparazzi pose is my favorite.
We went around another corner ad I spotted the Singing in the Rain umbrella. The kids had a good time posing with it.
The Streets of America are kind of a confusing maze and I don't think we saw much of them. We were trying to find the Backlot Tour and the map was less than helpful. During our walk we did see a couple of Power Rangers out signing autographs. Since no one in our house has ever seen a Power Ranger episode we didn't stop. We walked past a Monsters Inc. door and spotted where to go for the Lights! Motors! Actions! show. However we still were not finding the Backlot Tour.
I spotted a stairway that lead up to where I though we were suppose to be going, but it said cast members only or something like that. So we turned down a walk way which ended up taking us to a souvenir shop. I felt rather silly but I asked the CM in there how to find the Backlot Tour. She told us we needed to go back out the walk way and past where I had seen the staircase all the way to the end of the building. We did what she said and I was so focused on looking for the entrance that I didn't even notice what else was back in that area. We did finally, much to my relief, find the entrance and got in line with the few other people who were there and waited for the Backlot Tour to begin.
However, it will definitely be without me!
My son is 8 now, and did Tower of Terror for the first time this year. He did it just once, the fall he liked a lot, but not the theme, he was frightened of it.
Anyway Happy FP for RRC. I love that ride! And I agree about the simulators. I can do some but too much will make me very ill, generally with delayed affects. Found that out the hard way after spending all day at Disney Quest with over 15 trips on that make your coaster thing. 
It was a bad night.
