I'm with you.  I would guess it has to do with time zones too, but I would say 
it must also have something to do with their position on the earth.  The riddle 
doesn't state where they are, in fact, it says it allows them to visit new and 
exciting lands.  It also doesn't state that how long they actually traveled.  
I'm guessing they were traveling nearer to one of the poles and was able to 
"overlap" himself in time.  I'm guessing they traveled with an average speed of 
35 - 40 mph for four hours.  I just can't wrap my tiny little brain around the 
exact answer.

First thought that came to my mind was international date line, but I'm not 
sure if that would do it.
