It's been sunny and warm since our arrival. We had a rather exciting time our first day as it appeared we were supposed to do the visa stuff in Vancouver not LA. Told we might have to return to Canada...ugh...
Anyhow, we ended up sorting it out by going down to the Federal building in downtown LA. Quite an experience waiting in line just to get into the building...lots of security and people yelling at all of us. Good thing I didn't take my camera as they only confiscate restricted items. When Jim mentioned we'll probably be treated like criminals when we do get in, the man behind us commented "you can be sure of that"! Sorted out fairly easily for us in the end but some people around us seemed to be getting quite a hassle.
