My favorite color is purple because its associated with magic and mystery.  What's yours?
I really like red because of how intense it is, my mother's favorite is purple though.
Purple is actually a combination of red and blue.
That's pretty neat, can you tell me more about its association with magic and mystery?
Its also traditionally associated with royalty.  In Japan it is the official color of the Emperor and aristocracy.
Wow that's cool, I've always wanted to visit Japan. I think the 2020 Olympics will be there.
The bid was moved forward even after their 2011 earthquake and tsunami.
Yes that was a devestating event, but I think they have recovered since then. Would you like to visit Japan someday?
It was the most powerful earthquake ever recorded in Japan.  I would like to visit Japan one day.
