Slept in. Unpacked/organized some more. Bought sunglasses. Washed car. I then picked up Br. Dan from Cathedral High School since we were going to go pick up one of the volunteers traveling with him to the Philippines at LAX.
We arrived at LAX quite early and waited for the volunteer to arrive. After picking him up we decided it was time for lunch, a late lunch since it was 1:30 PM by now. We headed to a classic East L.A. hangout, El Tepeyac. The menu: burritos, flautas, and the classic chips and guacamole. It was a great lunch.
After lunch we headed to the Brothers house at Cathedral to unload luggage. Since we had such a big lunch we took the volunteer on a walking tour of Chinatown and Downtown L.A. We headed up Hill through Chinatown to the Cathedral. It's always nice to check the place out. After spending some time at the Cathedral, we headed over to the Walt Disney Concert Hall, this is quite the architectural gem.
I have to get to a concert there one of these days. We continued our tour of L.A. down to the Arco Plaza, Grand Central Market, City Hall, and Olvera St. It was quite the expedition, we really walked down that food (and realized how out of shape we were).We took a water break at the Brothers' house before heading to Border's Books in Glendale. Br. Dan needed a quote book for the boys at Bahay Pag-asa and a book for the flight. I needed some note cards to send to the young men at Bahay Pag-asa. After all this our day had finally come to an end, as I finally headed home to check in with my family, not before a Starbuck's stop though. I spent the evening at home with the family, not knowing quite the busy Sunday lay ahead...
