To change the calendar date when traveling, you must cross the International Date Line, which is located roughly along the 180th meridian in the Pacific Ocean. When you cross this line eastward, you subtract a day, and when you cross it westward, you add a day. This imaginary line helps account for the Earth's rotation and the 24-hour time zones.
