A large country with different time zones  |
|
All of my home country is on Greenwich Mean Time. Do you live in or have you visited a large country that has different time zones? Adelaide seemed to be just half an hour different from Sydney so I thought that was strange. Time difference affects me when I travel. Have you ever experienced jet lag? I flew at midday from London to Los Angeles to arrive at local time three in the afternoon. I felt so tired because my body clock told me it should have been the middle of the night. I went to bed at 8 in the evening that night to wake up at 4 in the morning.

1. chibiXpudding (226) | 1 year ago | U.S.A. is like that, it has 3 different (or 4) time zones. I never experienced jet lag though, since i'm a pretty heavy sleeper, but by the next day im all good:)
China, however, has only 1 time zone.

kenzie45230 (2467) | 1 year ago | Yeah, I'm in the US. Four time zones. It's great (not) when you have friends and relatives in the different time zones and have to figure out when you can and can't call them. Or if you're on the east coast and doing business with the west coast.

2. sudalunts (4247) | 1 year ago | The US has four time zones, eastern, central, pacific and mountain. I live in the eastern time zone. When I took a trip to Colorado to see my husband's father, he lives in Central, it is a two hour difference behind. So when we arrived it was actually nine in the evening, but where I live it was actually eleven. I did not notice any difference I adjusted pretty quickly.
The same when I went to Las Vegas, there is a three hour difference behind, same thing, I just enjoyed the three extra hours I got on the first day, I still seemed to wake up at my usual time in the morning.

3. HiLia2008 (2197) | 1 year ago | Hi, my country Indonesia is having 3 different time zones. As for the jet lag, I do have it once, it happens several years ago when I flew back from Amman to Jakarta but it's gone soon after taking a long sleep. Goodluck maximax8.

4. INGA832 (1064) | 1 year ago | I live in Russia and it has 12 different time zones. And it's so unusual when in winter in the morning we're waiting for the New Year and on the other end of our country people already celebrate it. So big difference!

6. wolfie34 (13858) | 1 year ago | The furthest I have been is Europe my friend, so obviously it's only an hour difference from the UK and the longest flight I have been on is 4 hours so I am not a globetrotter and haven't suffered with jetlag, but I am sure I am not missing out, however I will have that pleasure to come when I go to New Zealand won't I, do you know what their time zone is compared to UK? And is Sweden the same an hour difference?

maximax8 (10345) | 1 year ago | Hi my friend Wolfie. If it is 21.30 in London it will be 22.30 in Stockholm and it would be 09.30 in Auckland. That is because Sweden is one hour ahead and New Zealand is 12 hours ahead. When you go to New Zealand if you fly with only a stop for refueling you will get jet lag. I suggest you stop off for a few days en route. When I was 14 I went on a 3 and a half hour flight to Greece. My friend had some Australian relatives visit and they remarked that it was only a local flight. Happy traveling.

7. James72 (6960) | 1 year ago | Australia has three time zones from the West to the East Coast and I believe that the country with the largest number of different time zones is Russia with around six I think? I had actually never experiences jet lag before until my last trip to the USA a couple of months ago. It's strange really because I travel a lot, but until this last trip I had never experienced it before! And the funny thing was that by the time I had taken a few days to adjust to the new time zone I had to turn around and fly back to Cairo again! lol.

9. eeyore39 (3181) | 1 year ago | In the USA we have EST, CST, MST and PST. 4 different time zones in a matter of 3,000 miles. Then we have daylight savings. Which is only in effect during the summer months. Always remember to leap ahead in spring and fall back in fall. This automatically adjustes everyones time by an hour forward or backward depending on the time of year. Some places do not recognize it so when the whole country has daylight savings places like Arizona stays on their normal times zone. So who knows what time it is any more. LOL

10. kenzie45230 (2467) | 1 year ago | I think my worst jet lag came when I flew from Florida to California (4 time zones), then off to Hawaii. And, of course, back again in a week. I think it took me 2 more weeks for my body to get back to normal. Weird.
