It was bound to happen

Sunday 27th December

Getting ill, that is.

It may have been the cold at the Grand Canyon, or the chicken I ate there, or just a combination of tiredness and end of term catching up with me, but I arrived in Los Angeles accompanied by diarrhoea and cold.

I am staying in a hotel in Hollywood. It has air-conditioning. The only problem is that the remote control makes no sense to me. I can find my way around central heating but not a/c.

I thought the air conditioning was not working as I could not get it to do more than blow more cold air at me. However, after getting a hotel assistant to look at it (who is now my new amigo), the problem is not the a/c; it is me being British.

  2. One of the intresting things about traveling in America is being devided by a common language and quite often not being able to understand a word an american is sayingto you and after saying pardon twice it seems rude to continue.

    Funny but this never happens in the movies!!
