The islands of Fiji are on both sides the Anti-meridian (-180 and +180 longitude) but the International Date Line (IDL) is bent to give uniform time (UTC+12) to all of the Fiji group.

This makes Fiji a very interesting region to map makers.

the international date line sits on the 180 0 line of longitude in the middle of the Pacific Ocean , and is the imaginary line that separates two consecative calendar days

She has a thumb injury, and it has meant she hasn't played golf for most of this season.

It's carefully placed in the ocean to avoid the problems of the line being on land.

Yes, the Alaskan Aleutian Islands cross the International Dateline. On a map or globe it does not because the "International Dateline" kind of zig zags. This is only done on maps and globes so it would not go through any country. In reality the International Dateline is 180W/180E.

The International Date Line is an imaginary line of longitude which divides Earth into two days. Crossing the International Date Line east results in a day subtracted and crossing it west results in a day added. This is where the calendar day resets.

Sunday.

When traveling from west to east then yes, you lose a day. But,

when travelling from east to west you gain a day.

Example: American Samoa is east of the dateline and independent Samoa is west of the dateline, although there is only about 60 nautical miles between the islands. So Wednesday in American Samoa is Thursday in independent Samoa.

24 Hours. When you pass the international date line which is the meridian of 180 longitude, you add a day if going west or subtract a day going east.

In the above statement, the meridian refers to land

The International Date Line.

Yes it is.

In the Bering Strait, there are a pair of small islands ... "Big Diomede" and "Little Diomede".

Big Diomede belongs to Russia. Little Diomede belongs to the USA (Alaska).

The solid land parts of their coasts come within about 2.4 miles of each other, and they're often
joined by a solid ice bridge for much of the year.

The International Dateline runs between the islands.

So you have two places that are about 2.4 miles apart. People could stand there and flash
mirrors at each other on a clear day, or flashlights on a clear night, and maybe even drive
snowmobiles across the ice during the winter. One of the places is in Russia, the other one
is in the USA, and it's never the same date, time, or day of the week at both places.

Beijing is almost exactly opposite Washington, D.C., with a 12-hour time difference, so you can either fly east over the Pacific, crossing the International Date Line, or you can fly west over Asia and Europe, not crossing the IDL.

Nothing happens. If you're asleep at the time, or reading a book, nothing attracts your attention, and you wouldn't know that you had crossed the IDL. However, if you're traveling eastward, then before you reach your destination, you must rummage around in the trash basket, find the last day that you tore off of your calendar, and glue it back on. Or else simply crank your calendar wristwatch back to a day earlier than the date it is showing. If you don't do that, then when you reach your destination, your date will be a day later than everyone else there, and life will become complicated and unmanageable. For example: You'll go to your dental appointment a day early and have to sit in the waiting room for 25 hours. You'll be absent from work on Friday, thinking that it's Saturday, but you'll GO to work on Sunday, thinking that it's Monday. And you'll raise a ruckus the day BEFORE pay-day, when you believe you should be getting paid but it doesn't happen.
