What time is it NOW?

    Estimating the passage of time can be a very difficult task.  Check out ExploreScience. com  and see how close you can come.  I hope that you are better at it than I am!  Don't forget to fill out your observations in Time Zone Learning Log.
     As you travel around the globe, it is VERY important to know what time it is in other countries and across the United States.  Take a look at World Time Scales.  This website will help you answer some of the question on the Time Zone Learning Log.
     For example, Mrs. Novak had to called the American Express Office in Vienna to order her tickets for the Spanish Riding School.  In your learning log, YOU will have to figure out when Mrs. Novak could call them.  You might want to look at The World Clock   or World Time Zone Map or Worldtimezone.com to help you with this problem.
