When crossing the dateline and proceeding to the west, you lose a day. You tear a daily page
from your calendar, and crank your wrist-watch forward 24 hours.

When one crosses the international date line the calendar day?

When you cross the IDL, you turn your calendar one whole day, either forward or backward depending on what direction you're traveling. If you're traveling westward, with the US behind you and Japan in front of you, turn your calendar forward a day when you cross the line, and skip 24 hours. If you're traveling eastward, with China behind you and Canada in front of you, turn your calendar back a day when you cross the line, and repeat the previous 24 hours.
