Day one of the 2016 Film and Media Studies trip to Los Angeles is now over - more of a day and a half, really, and by the time bedtime finally loomed many of us had been awake for well over 24 hours.
We arrived in sunny California after a long flight that we shared with footballing (and crisp eating) legend Gary Linekar, though we were fed up of the sight of him by the time we'd queued for 90 minutes to get through US immigration. Even Allison Quinn had stopped winking at him after such a long wait.
After checking in to our hotel, all 27 students and three staff walked to local diner Jerry's, where they managed to create a table for 30 at no notice. After stocking up on Coney Island hotdogs and amazing looking shakes, it was off for some well-earned rest.
Day 2 promises more sun, with a tour of the city (including visits to the Hollywood Walk Of Fame and Rodeo Drive, among other highlights) and a meal at the Hard Rock Cafe on the cards.
