Default They met Mathias on a day trip to Cozumel.

H.

They met Mathias on a day trip to Cozumel.


How would - to Cozumel - be classified in the above sentence.


Have I analysed the rest of the sentence correctly?

They - subject
met - simple past of meet
Mathias - DO
on - preposition introducing (a day trip)
a day trip - noun phrase
to Cozumel. ( ? )
