Liam and Katie ask your Mum and Dad to explain crossing the International Date Line. If they can't I'll get Grandad to do it...he'll be much better than me! Let me know.

  1. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAGGIE!
    Hope that the sea is treating you kindly and the sun is warming you just enough on this special day of yours.
    My morning ritual...make coffee, feed two screaming cats, grab cup of java, then rush to my computer to read Maggie's post to find out what time George went to bed last night. I love you George!!
    Maggie; I am enjoying your post immensely! Your
    beautiful writing places me nearby; I can see the Explorer, feel the flow and can smell the sea. I wanna be there!
    Waiting for Japan.
    Love to you both, Pamela
