This entry will be brief, as we mainly want to fill in the gaps while trying to keep the high price of Internets here in Thailand at bay...
L.A. sure is a big city. We decided to rent a car to enable the many, many, errands we had to run over the next couple of days, and it seemed like everything was always 30 minutes away. Most of our time was spent chasing down the errands that had to get done before we left for Thailand (it turns out than many things are easier to accomplish in the State), but some notable highlights included:
* the best pizza we've had west of Chicago (and frankly, it gave those places a run for their money), at Tony's Little Italy. Carrie had spent hours in Portland before we left searching for a Chicago-style pizzeria in L.A., and this was the one place everyone agreed on. Its out by Anaheim, but if any of you pizza lovers are in L.A., we highly recommend it.
*The very comfortable bed in our hotel room at the four points Sheraton.
*Disneyland on our final day. We were there for 5 hours, but it was a Thursday, and there were no lines for any of the rides, so we got to do everything we wanted, including the corny rides Carrie likes such as Mr. Toads Wild Ride, and Peter Plans Flight. All in all a little tame for big kids, but we had fun nonetheless.
We finally got everything done we needed to, and off we went to Thailand, for some much deserved fruity drinks on the beach after the challenge of the Inca Trail and the Futaleufu.

NO Disneyland trip would be complete without Space Mountain, Pirates of the Caribbean, Its a Small World, and the Matterhorn. Hope you hit at least some of those.
