Swapping Brains

As soon as I begin typing I am ready to tell you all about things in Hebrew. Then, I have to switch to English and get things out. I'm not sure what will happen when I get busy totally immersed in Hebrew once my program begins next week.

I'm off this morning to visit Elijah's Cave as well as some other sites. I will take the subway - which is partly above ground and partly - well, a subway. It's the only one in Israel.

I spent a great deal of time out front - at the front desk - talking with the desk clerk (though she is really more than that). Her name is Tzipora - Tzipi. She was so friendly and we chatted lots and lots. She helped me with my Hebrew.

I've been watching kids TV in Hebrew. I get a lot of it, but not all. I'm sure you'll understand me when I tell you that everyone speaks so fast - maher, maher!!

I figured out how to use the digital camera yesterday evening - well, actually the middle of the night. I think I'm getting close to being on Israeli time and not East Coast time.

Finally - let me tell you - you should be here with me. This is great!!!
