Time zones are fun to think about. I find it takes real patience, however, to understand fully the Earth's rotation on its axis and around the sun, let alone whether the International Date Line puts us a day ahead or behind on a given trip! But a time zone map tells us clearly that Vietnam is eleven hours ahead of Massachusetts time. So, just as you are thinking about bed, we will be starting off on a new day's adventure. Check out this time zone map. And also take a look at this map of Vietnam. We three (Marianne, Mollie and Rusty) will be moving from north to south on our journey through Vietnam. After leaving New York City, we will touch down briefly in Seoul, Korea, then deplane in Hanoi. Perhaps you can find the place names we mention in our blog as we go.
