July 18th Los Angeles 10am
We made it, negotiated the long queues at Border Security. Silver was ‘good’ and we passed through without a hitch, negotiated a shuttle bus to our door which took us around through UCLA campus and to the Best Western. No this art deco hotel is not the Best Western, it was next door! It was a quaint place with a pool which made it easy to acclimatise.
Our first meal was at Carney’s [apparently a famous landmark]. There was lots of chilli and grits but it was food and we were very hungry! It took us 3 days to get over the plane trip and stop falling to sleep each time we sat down.
YES that is a red colour tortilla with the salad inside
loving that red...mmm ...bet you cant wait to get into your kitchen to recreate some of these US delights that you are encountering! More photos of US gastronomy please!!!
