Connecting to the Internet Indian Style
Working in the cramped spaces of an Indian Internet Cafe, one that actually allowed me to connect my laptop.
Searching for an Internet connection occupied me greatly during my time in India. I had to check my email fairly regularly to see if I had any work that needed doing. As we were travelling it inevitable meant searching new places for Internet cafes. Finding an Internet cafe was no guarantee that you would be able to get on. With power cuts and Internet outages it was pretty hit or miss affair. Even if I was in one of the few Internet cafes that would allow me to connect my laptop, as most wouldn’t let me and thought my mac was a security risk!
Anyhow, you can imagine how much I wished I had a dedicated connection. So after I leave India, Lene & Freya get a permanent Internet connection. Lene has just sent these images of the installation guys setting up the Internet in their apartment.
It has been extremely entertaining to read about your experience in India. I hope that you guys are still having a ball.

We felt very proud of our little Aussie girl (wearing green and gold?)
Such elegance and poise in the photos; Shri Mataji working through with Her grace.
Hope you are both proud parents. (can feel the smiles)
