Happy New Year #AmericanSamoa, finally you're with us in #Year2023. Manuia Le Tausaga Fou. 🥳🎉

And that ends New Year's Eve around the world after 24 hours, starting from #Samoa to ending in American Samoa. #InternationalDateline #HappyNewYear2023 #HappyNewYear #NewYearsDay

@Fanua do people on the international dateline run (sail?) back and forth over the line on new year's saying, "it's 2022!...It's 2023... It's 2022!"?

I'd do that

@2ck Doable but it's about 4-5 hours nautical time out from land on both sides and the South Pacific Ocean can be rough at times.

However, you can celebrate the #NewYear twice within 24 hours. Start in #Samoa on #NewYearsEve, and then on New Year's Day take a short 30-minute plane hop across the #InternationalDateline to American Samoa, arriving on New Year's Eve (again), and ringing in the New Year again. So the first and last. I did it one year, it was fun and novel. #travel
