You can have days with more or fewer than twenty- four hours, and weeks with more or fewer than seven days.If you make a five- day trip across the Atlantic Ocean, your ship enters a different time zone every day. As you enter each zone, the time changes one hour. Traveling West, you set your clock back; traveling East, you set it ahead. Each day of your trip 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.
