It was a very happy day for us when we found out that Diane and Bill, our blogging friends from
Adventures before Dementia and
Bill's Ponderings would be visiting Washington DC. When Diane called me so that we could arrange to meet, Gregg and I were absolutely delighted.
They were everything we expected them to be, a very warm and friendly couple whom we took to straight away, and by the time we left we felt like we were saying goodbye to old friends.
Here they are at a restaurant in Georgetown with a good view of all the activity on the Potomac River.
After lunch we took a quick tour up to The Supreme Court (above) and the Capitol Building (below).
These are the lovely souvenir's they gave us from Australia, a great memento of our time together and we will treasure them, thank you Diane and Bill.
So Dear Friends, happy traveling and we will check in each day to see where you are along your journey. Thanks for such a great time and we won't say goodbye but will say until we meet again.

How lovely! It's a great feeling when you connect with someone so readily:-)
I couldn't agree more about what wonderful people Diane and Bill are! The Musician and I really enjoyed our visit with them in Hollywood. I am constantly grateful for the new friends to be found and enjoyed thanks to blogging and the Internet!
How wonderful! It looks like a good time was had by all.
what a wonderful post.. It sounds like you've found friends for life here xx
Oh, so nice! It’s nice to meet blog friends in real life. It's so nice to hear that it was a success.
That was really nice! It would be nice to meet some of my blogging friends! It sounds like you have a great friendship going, that will last for life!
Thanks for stopping by to my blog. You are always welcome again! LG Tina :)
Isn't it grand to meet such likable folks via the internet? Thanks for sharing their visit!
Isn't blogging fun? I just met up with some bloggers in Utah and it was like we'd all known each other for forever. Incredible. I've read Diane/Bill's blogs for probably as long as we've all been blogging. I'm sure they would be just like that also. I told them I'd meet them in the Grand Canyon when they come through here but apparently they won't be there very long.
That's so nice :D) Sounds like you all had a great day together.
How cool, that is so nice that you got to meet up with Diane and Bill. Your photos are wonderful and I am so happy you had a great time and met your blogging friends in person. You and Diane are both so sweet on your blogs and comments.
How very cool. You made my day.
It's always lovely meeting online friends after being cyber friends for so long.
So lovely to meet blogging friends. I have not as yet had the pleasure but the future is an open book.
You all look so happy and I bet you gave them a great tour. It is always so much nicer when someone shows you around a city that they love.
Thank you for popping by, I always appreciate your visits.

Congrats on 2 accounts, new baby and meeting blogging friends.
What a great time you must have had. Very nice pictures.
A great post to read.
Its lovely to meet people you come across online.
I had a similar experience last year meeting an online friend from Borneo when he came over to the UK for Birdfair as part of his countries tourist trade team...
The world is a very small place...
Thank you so much for the wonderful afternoon. We too enjoyed your company very much and it was just like meeting old friends.
Isn't it great when you connect in person with blogging friends! Diane and Bill look like a lovely couple.
How cool is that?! How fun to meet blogging friends in person!
You live in the DC area? I grew up there--Silver Spring (very changed from when I lived there).
It really is such fun to meet other bloggers isn't it? I'm so glad you had such a happy time.
Thank you once again for all your lovely comments.
