Universal Studios

We spent a full day at Universal Studios. We had paid a little extra to get Front of Line passes which were very useful! Nothing particularly funny to talk about - although whenever there was an opportunity to get wet ... Dad did in spectacular fashion. I was under the impression that...

Let's Go Dodgers!

Started early, for once, and headed over to the U.C.L.A Campus to pick-up some tickets for tonight's L.A. Dodgers baseball game against the Florida Marlins. Not before watching a good-old fashioned police car chase live on the telly, with the woman racing away at an average speed of 40mph - it...

Full Circle

Had a bit of a lay-in this morning in Ventura - come on, we deserved it after those trains! - then took the rather short trip into Los Angeles via the Camarillo Shopping Outlet. These outlets are massive - they put Bicester Village to shame - and are set out in a circle. You get halfway...

Touchdown

We're here at last! After 11 hours we finally touched down in LA at 2:56 local time (10:56pm in UK). There was a long queue for immigration but eventually we cleared it and all my worries about getting into the USA were unfounded. We then picked up our bags and jumped on to a shuttle bus to...

On our way!

After a fantastic weekend celebrating the upcoming Levy/Sullivan union, we are now on the way to Sydney! Although slightly tired, we are still basking in the memories of an excellent 48 hours spent reuniting with already-missed business school friends and getting to know other cool people in...

End of the e-learning journey

And so the story ends ... We are now in Los Angeles looking forward to our return. I have had such an incredible e-learning opportunity through this study tour. I have met the most interesting and knowledgeable people in each and every place I have visited, all of whom welcomed me so...

Last stop this town

We came to LA for one reason and one reason only- to shop. Having ditched pretty much every garment we owned in Cancun we were excited about the prospect of wearing clothes which did not have comedy value written all over them. With the help of our long abused credit cards we explored the...

LA

LA, home to Hollywood and the red carpet; to Beverley Hills and Bel Air; to Baywatch and to all my homies! Unfornately for us, after our 10 hour flight and 5 hour wait to get through customs, we didn't get any red carpet treatment, and nor were there any homies ready to pick us up in our ride...
