Time is relative?

The time difference…

The time difference between our locations is 14 hours, give or take, depending on whether theĀ  US is on Daylight Savings time.

Body Clocks…

But even if / when we are in the same time zone our body clocks are totally different!

Maggie…
David…
  • Morning person
  • Gets up at 4:30AM or earlier
  • Goes to bed around 8:30PM
  • Night Owl
  • Gets up between 7 and 9AM
  • Goes to bed between Midnight and 2AM

Jet Lag…

Given the rule of thumb that recovering from Jet Lag takes about a day per hour of time difference… when Maggie visited it took almost two weeks for her body to be on local time!
