So, we are home, our adventures are at an end.
Our flight was uneventful and we arrived home to a beautiful sunny, hot day.
We would like say a big ‘thank you’ to all of you who have faithfully followed our great adventure. Thank you to all those who left comments and let us know that we were not just here talking to ourselves. Our champion commenter was Nat (my Twilight buddy) who left a comment most days! Another ten points to you Nat for not getting bored with our gibber gabber. We had over 6,000 views of the blog, many, many more than we ever expected.
A big “thank you” to Carol and Allan for taking care of the homestead while we were away enjoying ourselves and another big “thank you” to Sue and Tim for taking us to and collecting us from, Heathrow. It was so lovely to see familiar faces when we landed.
We’ve met so many lovely people along the way and we look forward to the next time when we all meet again. So, until then, “it’s goodnight from me and it’s goodnight from him.” That will mean more to the Brits than to the Americans, so just so that you don’t feel left out, here’s a little video for you so you understand what I’m talking about.
So, until we meet again, ‘thanks’, and ‘goodbye’, it’s been a blast!

YAY!! At least I succeeded at something in my life!! ha ha!! Loved every minute of the blog! I’ll miss checking it daily and living vicariously through your adventures!! Glad you made it home safe and sound. Till next time xx (love the goodbye’s in every language!!!)
Hey champion commenter, glad you enjoyed it. It will be strange not to be posting every day. Did you know I spoke all those languages!! Yes, until the next time. xx
Welcome back x
Thanks Ann. I’ve just been booking the gym for next Friday!! x
Welcome home to you both , and just wanted to say how much i have enjoyed following you on your adventure. I loved all of the photographs and enjoyed your daily news which was written with such knowledge and wit. You have been educating me along the way.Hope to see you soon. xx
Hi Pam, thanks, glad you enjoyed it. We’ve learnt a lot too. Yes, see you soon. xx
Did you get any decent photos then Si?
Hi Si, the only decent photos he got were the ones that I took!!!!!! Sandra
Once again, welcome home! We’ll certainly miss reading the daily blog and all the interesting facts and figures, not to mention the fabulous pics….looking forward to the slide show! Good to have you back! Sue & Tim xx
Thanks dearie, it sure will be strange not writing it everyday. We have over 10,000 photos so that could be some slideshow!! Don’t worry, we wouldn’t make you sit through that!!xx
Welcome home to you both and thank you for sharing your holiday with us with those beautiful pictures and stories. Safely home now what next?! Peggy
Thanks Peggy. What next indeed ………….. we need to start thinking about that.
Welcome back – wow! what an adventure. It was so good to follow each day and for you to share each day rather than trying to remember everything when you are back home. Fab photos too. Now you need a holiday! Love Jane in Romsey x
Hi Jane, thanks, glad you enjoyed it. Yes, we would never have remembered everything that’s for sure. We have over 10,000 photos, Si’s starting to go through them now. xx
Hey there Sandra and Si,
Thank you for being such wonderful teachers. I’ve learned so much about the geography of the US, especially in my own back yard. We thoroughly enjoyed your visit with us. And I thank you for listening to to JB’s “views” on everything political…I know, he had a captive audience 😉
Can’t wait to see what your next great adventure will be! xx
Hey Dot, you’re welcome, we learnt a lot too. As always, we enjoyed our visit too and are always happy to listen and chat with JB. Don’t know what our next adventure will be …… watch this space!! xx
Many thanks for sharing your American experiences with us. We have really enjoyed reading about the places you have visited and the people you have met. We have loved the photos too. All in all it seems like you had a real good time and once again many thanks for Sharing your holiday with us.
We are also pleased to hear you have both arrived back home safely. Kind regards Chris and Dave xxxx
Hi Chris and Dave, many thanks. So pleased you enjoyed ‘travelling’ with us via the blog and sharing our adventures and we really appreciated your comments. Here’s to the next time. Our very best wishes to you both. xxxx

Glad you stopped by for a short visit.. I appreciated it very much…
