sleep time-readaptation

[Rosina Lila]

Hi Richard,
Some years ago I found out how not to lose a day abroad because of the time
changes that result when one travels  to another continent:
The moment that I strap myself  onto the airplane seat I take a sleeping pill
(usually a 5 mg. ambien) and wake up in good condition six hours later,  just
about the time when they are serving breakfast on the plane.
Sure, I forgo the evening meal, the movies, etc., which, frankly, are no loss
at all, at least not to me..
I also seek a place by the window so that other passengers  won't wake me up.

If on the first nighttime in Europe, or wherever, I am still not
sleep-adjusted, I take a second sleeping pill and that's it. The next morning I wake up as
though I were home.
As I remember, sometime ago another pilgrim made the same suggestion here.
