Much like the Beatles in the sixties and seventies, with throngs of young, screaming fans in every city, the group of Israeli staff hired to work at Camp Tawonga this summer, comprised of counselors, arts and crafts staff, an assistant Jewish programmer, and two program assistants, has developed a following among both the staff and the children. Today we had "Israel Floats", a time where the children could visit stations of their choosing, all with Israeli themes. The event culminated in an Israeli dance exhibition at the stage and a Mediterranean lunch.


What? An image? Yes, friends. I have been given a digital camera (and by given I mean allowed to use for the summer so long as I am taking pictures for this here blog). Internet here is at a speed below dial up, a speed that cave people would have grunted at in disdain as they beat the cave walls with the femurs of large animals, a speed that makes J.T. Snow say, "That is slow!" (for all you Giants fans out there). As a result, it takes the better part of a week to add a picture to the text. Will I add some RAM to speed things up? Will I get a new computer? Will I just add one picture per post and not get more technical than I have to? All will be revealed.
