Back to the Sauna!

Before 7am, Theo was not that keen on having his 'goodbye' photo taken with me - in fact the initial attempt looked like this..

...until he was allowed to hold his Mummy's phone!

Goodbyes are always the worst part of a trip home, of course.  But this has been a great trip with lovely times and lots of happy memories - and we will be visiting again before too long.

The return journey was smooth, take off over Windsor Castle was bright and sunny.. Lovely morning (castle quite distant -  immediately under the wing tip)

Arriving back at Dulles it was immediately evident that, instead of the pleasant sunny day I had left behind in the UK, this was a very hot and muggy day.

A wall of heat was waiting for us on the jetway and it was a relief to get into the airport and even more to get into David's car and back to the house!

As this screenshot from my phone shows, even at 7pm when we sat outside on the decking, it was still 34 degrees, with a heat index ('feels like') temperature

of 39 degrees - sauna temperature, in other words.
