I'm 16 hours ahead of you!

I know you're just learning how to tell time. Has anyone explained time zones to you yet? Maybe not. Anyway, down here in Antarctica I'm on the other side of the world as well as on the bottom of the world. I'm 16 hours ahead of you. I used to be 17 hours ahead of you until last Sunday. (We're in the same time zone as the country of New Zealand.) Being 16 hours ahead of you, it's already tomorrow here! When you read this on Wednesday (if you do), it will already be Thursday here.
