Lauren, Brian and baby Max returned to the US on Wednesday. Within hours, Mandy (my mother) and Ian turned up, making for two trips to the airport that day.
The guest room felt like a hotel room, with just enough time to strip the bed and put on some clean sheets before they were being slept in again.
Their trip was short, just two full days, and so they were gone again by early Saturday morning.
Our next set of visitors arrive towards the end of the month, just in time for Koninginnedag. That will be Sarah's parents on their first trip out here since we moved into the new house.
