The missing day

I am going to tell you a story about my trip to Australia. A few days ago my family and I hopped on a plane to Montreal Canada. Then we took a flight to Vancouver, which is a city on the west coast of Canada. The next flight we took was from Vancouver to Brisbane Australia. The flight to Australia was 14 and ½ hours long. On the plane, I slept for 10 hours straight and I missed dinner!!! I also watched “The Princess Bride”. P.S.This is the best movie ever because it is a romcom. The movie has three different plots. It is hard to explain, but I highly recommend it.

Now you might ask, “Clio, what about the missing day?” Well, on the flight to Australia something funny happened. All of the sudden, we crossed the international date line. The international date line is basically a line halfway from the prime meridian, and it divides two calendar days. When you cross the international date line east to west, you gain a day. When you cross it from west to east you lose a day. So when we were flying over the Pacific ocean on Saturday, we went into Monday morning when we crossed the date line. Australia is 14 hours ahead of Albany, NY. When you wake up in the morning, I am getting ready to go to sleep at night. So basically, I’M FROM THE FUTURE!! Next time I write a blog post, I will predict the future of the next day!

These are two videos are from my take off from my take off from Boston and my landing from Brisbane.
