Well I've not posted in a day or two because we've really had a manic time in LA. The first night we were here we had a long drive here and just went to a nearby shopping area called Westwood as Jonny has said. The second night we also took another drive over to the cinema to see a recommended film called Australia and although it's perhaps a bit long it's very entertaining and well worth a watch. We also spent the day in Universal and generally enjoyed the rides and attractions there as well as getting a glimpse into what happens in a film studio and are a little bit wiser as to how they use the sets in films.
Today we have seen yet another film, Quantum of Solace, which is good and I think it's worth watching definitely if only because it seems to set up a third film to follow on from it. We had a little look around the Universal City (where we saw the film) and had a grand tour of LA courtesy of our Russian car driver called Boris; a man who has been in the USA for 30 years and apparently doesn't like it here. Go figure.
Mid afternoon we went to see Jay Leno's The Tonight Show (episode 3668) and really enjoyed being part of the audience and getting to be part of a live tv show experience. We even saw Tom Jones perform his new single, Come Alive, live!
Tomorrow we fly home, which just leaves us to pack tonight.
Overall it's been a fun time out here, with great experiences that will never leave me along the way. Hopefully we can break the tradition and actually get a flight on time in the USA tomorrow, out of the country. Route 66 has been a blast and although this might not be my very last entry, that's me signing out from the USA.
Stay classy United States of America!

Glad you all got to go see Quantum of solace, and to go and be part of a live tv audience, I would ask waht it was like to see tom jones, but since you'll be back here soon, i'll wait to hear all about everything then. Anyway, glad you have had such a good time. Take care. R
