Time Travel Riddle

Leaving Home on Monday:

First Monday: The person leaves home on Monday.

Sailing for an Hour on Sunday:

First Sunday: The person sails for an hour on the same day as leaving home on Monday.

Returning Home on Monday:

First Monday (continued): The person returns home on the same day as leaving, which is now Monday based on the sailing hour being on Sunday. This is possible due to the bending of time in the riddle.

Waiting Till Sunday Gets There Then Coming Home:

In this part of the riddle, the timeline gets mixed up to create confusion and trick the reader into thinking it's a linear progression of days.

Leave the First Monday and Stay Somewhere for 6 Days:

Second Tuesday: The person leaves again on the first Monday and this time stays somewhere for six days, leading to the second Monday.

Sail on that Sunday and Go Home the Second Monday:

Second Sunday: The person sails on the Sunday after staying somewhere for six days, eventually returning home on the second Monday as stated in the riddle.
