What does tomorrow mean?
It is 5:30 pm here, but at home it’s 5:00 in
the morning. I leave Weihai tomorrow and make a stop in Beijing. Technically, I
will be home tomorrow at 2:35 pm. But I’m crossing the International Date
Line. By Beijing time, my flight for the
States leaves Tuesday at 12:45, and fly across the North Pole—this way is the
quickest. According to Beijing time, I
arrive in DC Wednesday morning.
Date is a generalization, related to time.
