I also have to strongly disagree with the suggestion that you sleep during the day if you're tired and in a new time zone, and that you stay up 'til the wee hours if you can't sleep at night. It's possibly the *worst* thing to do, in fact: You'll make sure that your body does not acclimate to the offset pattern of light & dark. Instead, get to sleep when local time says go to sleep (*don't* hit the bars until 4am!) and try to stay awake during the day.
