Yes, it's interesting. Some friends of mine traveled around the world some years ago. Their youngest daughter had her birthday when they crossed the date line (they went to either Auckland or Western Samoa at the time), so she was very exited that she had her birthday for two days!Her fathers was the day after.
When we had the solar eclipse, a few years ago, I was speaking to my girlfriend in London and could decribe it to her. Not that it got that dark here.
According to my sleeping habits, I should be living a few hours west of here, and I'd be an early bird. LOL!
