Packing List -- Update --

So, I've found a few new things that I've added to my packing list.  Rather that go over everything again, you can check out the previous list here.  Here is the list of updates:

sunblock/bug spray
tripod
camcorder
6 hours of video tape
shampoo, toothpaste, and other liquids
2 more pairs of socks
1 button up shirt (there maybe a semi-formal situation where a T-shirt would not be appropriate)

In my trial run at packing my backpack I have been able to fit all of these item into my bag as well as those listed in the previous packing post.  Because I found that I have the space I decided

Packing Photos

I did a practice pack today just to make sure everything will fit.  Right now I just have some photos of everything that's going in my bag so far and I'll have an updated packing list post coming soon.  I took these photos after packing all this stuff in my bag to make sure it would fit.  When I was unpacking everything I realized that I forgot my sandals, 100% DEET bug spray, one shirt, and a couple extra pairs of socks.  I've got a plan which I think will allow me to fit these remaining items into the bag and it will still close, barely.  More on that later, right now just enjoy the photos.  Everything on the couch, including the tripod, will either be in the backpack or worn to Bolivia.

Packing

Normally a packing list is not that interesting, however, I have had several people look at me with amazement when I tell them that I will be attempting to pack only a single backpack for our ten day trip to Bolivia.  For this reason I figure that a detailed description of my plan is in order.  Below you will find a list of the things I will be bringing on the trip, also you can view the carry-on restrictions for American Airlines right here.

Ideally all of these items will be placed in my backpack which is designed to meet carry-on restrictions.  The backpack measures 13.8W X 8.5D X 17.5H in which totals 39.8in when added together, this is under the 45in limit imposed
