From east to west

On Sunday evening we crossed the Greenwich Meridian, thus moving from the eastern hemisphere to the western hemisphere. Last night we moved our clocks back an hour, so we are now on GMT, which is also Sierra Leone's time zone. The sail continues to be smooth and uneventful. Olly
PS I am constantly amused when I hear people describing the developed world as "the west", when in fact Sierra Leone and Liberia are further west than most of Europe including the UK.
