Strange things happen to time when you travel. The earth is divided into twenty-four zones on hour apart. You can have days with more or less than twenty-four hours, and weeks more or less than seven days.

If you have a five-day journey across the Atlantic Ocean, your ship goes into a different time zone every day. As you go into each zone, the time changes one hour. Traveling west, you set your clock or watch back; traveling east, you set it ahead. Each day of your journey has either twenty- five or twenty-three hours.

If you travel by ship across the Pacific Ocean you cross the International Date Line. By agreement, this is the point where a new day begins. When you cross the line, you change your calendar one full day, backward or forward. Traveling east, today becomes yesterday; traveling west, it is tomorrow.
