Two of our very good friends from Brisbane, Australia stopped by to visit us in Reston Virginia over the Labor Day weekend.  The phrase “just stopped by” sounds a little casual when the starting point is so far away. Actually it’s just under 10,000 miles away. So it is quite a journey. 

They started out in the Western US, eventually came to Reston and are headed off to England for a wedding. Then, among other things, they will head out  for a cruise before heading back to Australia. So it will be a busy time. 

While in Reston, we basically chilled out as the summer comes to an end. All too soon I might add. During the visit we went to a vineyard in the Blue Ridge Mountains, said hello to John Denver (that bit is a lie), visited Potomac Falls Park, rested by the pool in our condo and saw some of the sights in Reston.  

Some other photos from the visit are posted below.
