Lavender Crocs Track Jodhpur Weather Using Purple Theme
Second choice if it’s too wet in Udaipur. And we even figured out how to give the weather a purple theme

Of all places for it to happen, her rosy naivety was shattered at the blogference.
It was the last session of the day, and she was determined to connect her laptop to the wireless internet that had been evading her all day.
Never mind the numerous TV documentaries that had warned her about the dangers of connecting to an open wireless network. What could possibly be dangerous at an academic institute of higher education?
Suddenly a new wireless connection appeared:
Free Wireless Connection it was called.
Underneath the name of the connection were the foreboding words: Peer-to-Peer Connection, but typically of lavender personality people with rosy perceptions, the words floated right by her, and she connected.
A few moments later, an unexpected dialog box popped up, informing her that Yotam7 wanted permission to download media files from her computer!
The words Peer-to-Peer abruptly floated back into her frame of reference, shaking her consciousness to reconstruct the current reality:
She’d been duped by a hacker who had planted spyware on her laptop!
By her own hand (well, actually her own forefinger) she had connected directly to a strange private laptop that now had direct access to her data!
A swift click of the mouse deactivated the connection, but the potential damage had been done.
She didn’t want to trouble Ilana, who was sitting next to her during this earth-shattering event. Ilana was avidly taking notes for her blog while listening to the current speaker.
So she strained her eyes a few rows down to where Yigal was sitting, but he was typing away at a post that was shortly going up on his blog. He didn’t seem to be bothered about being connected to an open wireless network.
Drawing both her cameras from her back-pack, she documented the crime scene, which was easy to photograph because nothing purple was in view. We were cowering under the table.
She didn’t manage to pin-point any suspects (or so she tells us, and so will you be able to see for yourselves as soon as she figures out how to put the video clip on the blog), but we got to report the scoop of our lives.

As we mentioned earlier, Marcus was supposed to by her a lavender pashmina when he was in India on business in May.
At that time she didn’t have an inkling that she would be going there herself in August, so she gave Marcus strict instructions about what to buy. She even provided him with a printout of this picture -
Marcus hadn’t met us yet or seen our shade of lavender because we were still in Eilat when he left for India.
“Pink, lavender - what difference does it make?” or so he thought, and he bought her a lovely pink pashmina.
Here’s a photo of us with the pink pashmina.
What do you think?

We’re still neurotic about being left behind (here and here), but now we think that she’ll have to take us to India.
How else will she find us a perfect match?
