The 30-hour day on Poseidon takes some getting used to, both for Terran characters and players. In an attempt to ease this, here is my take on the rhythm of a typical day.

0000:Midnight. Most people asleep.
0700:Dawn. Wake up. Breakfast.
0900:Nominal start of "working day".
1500:Noon. Light lunch. Start of siesta.
1900:Mid-afternoon. End of siesta.
2300:Dusk. Evening. Nominal end of "working day".
2400:Main meal eaten (family), or start of evening entertainment.
2600:Evening entertainment. Generally promenading, people-watching, visiting "tapas" bars, and the like.
2900:Night. Most people to bed.
3000:Midnight again.

Timekeeping over a longer period is covered in my description of the Poseidon calendar.
