Fab visit by Colin and Grace

Colin is Dave's brother, my "brother in law".  He came over yesterday with Grace, his daughter.  Martha and Katy and Grace are excellent friends, aged 11 (or 12?), 10 and nearly 9.  Colin is in excellent spirits.  He is clearly delighted with my progress, as I am.  Arriving during the tennis, there is no surprise to our choice of activity.  My laugh with him is that I believe it is part of my story, that Andy Murray will with 2013 Wimbledon.  He does not believe that Andy will do it, and that Djocovic will take the title. 
Colin has some fun challenging by life goals.  Climbing a live volcano is apparently the most dangerous thing that anyone can do.  I have wanted to do this, prior to my diagnosis.  Researching where to go and who with is a challenge for me to begin.  I have not started looking yet.  South America is where I will begin to look first. 
Martha, Katy and Grace have been out to the festival again.  When they come in, they have been on a ride together.  Grace gave me some chocolates, that Martha ate (there were dark chocolates, which she loves), and a beautiful candle.
Colin and Katy play the guitar together too.  I am impressed by Colin's guitar skills (he has been learning since a "big birthday"), and I vow to learn to play myself.  I would love to be able to play chords and strum.  I could then take the guitars camping.
Colin, Grace and Margi - I love you all.
Seeya soon
