We Lost a Day!

Early this morning we crossed the International Date Line.  When we went to bed last night it was Saturday, October 9th, and when we woke up today it was Monday, October 11th.  Very strange.  The bummer of it all is that we missed out on a very cool date:  10/10/10!!  Someone will have to let us know if it was a good day or a bad day. What’s even stranger is that if a person was traveling the other direction across the International Date Line they would repeat the same day twice.  There might be a boatload of people out there who enjoyed 10/10/10 two days in a row, those lucky peeps!  Since we’re not traveling back across the International Date Line, I think the only way we’ll get our day back is one time zone at a time while we’re traveling westward across the globe.     


I'm not sure what sort of picture makes sense to put with a posting on the International Date Line, so I've decided to include a photo of our 12 year wedding anniversary dessert extravaganza on 10/4/10.  :)
