We are back in Reston tonight having travelled - with stopovers in Honolulu and Los Angeles airports - for around 21 hours.
Our air journey started at Kona airport in Big Island which has a very relaxed style for an international airport in that the waiting areas and gates are open air.
This is our departure gate - with the Hawaiian Airlines plane just beyond.
It was very warm - as the snapshot that I took of the screen on my phone shows..
It was more than 30 degrees at 6.30 in the evening and feeling much warmer in the humid air.
Honolulu airport is much bigger but has large open air walkways and a very cute sign for the ladies toilets..
The one for the men's toilet was similar - featuring a Hawaiian flowered shirt - but as it was rather a wide open entrance I wasn't brave enough to stand there and take a photo!
As we got close to Dulles airport, it was sunset again. Below us rather a different view..
And in the distance, Reston town centre..
As this screenshot shows, the weather is a little cooler here..
As we flew in I could see that many of the trees here are starting to change colour and I suspect that there will be a carpet of Autumn leaves waiting for our attention in the morning!
That is a long journey! Back to reality and as you say leaves! You better get cracking this week then before your next breakaway.
