"Squeeze the World"

Last week, a German volunteer who usually works at the kindergarten (or "gan") came to the school for a day. After a day of loading and unloading boxes, assembling shelves, and trying to make everything fit into a postage-stamp storage room, she made a perceptive comment "we are doing men's work!" Since then, I've been applying that phrase to most of my jobs there, and it especially suits this week. When I told the principal about it on the school bus, he actually seemed pleased. "Nobody can say we discriminate!"

However, it's all enjoyable, except for random occasions when I encounter an odd man or two or encounter soldiers while dumping suspicious loads into a public dumpster, but even that adds spice to the experience. However, my shoulders hope that tomorrow will bring some more domestic chores my way, other than cleaning :P

In other news, I have some more pictures! Here's a group of the students on the way back from the Tiberias Marathon:



And here are the coveted pictures from the school balcony:





I'm happy to report that the chilly weather has discouraged the speedo-wearers. I hope that that isn't a disappointment to anyone, because that would be gross.

Oh, no speedos! sad day. (tear)

Thanks for the cool pictures - Oh how I miss you Anna!

Did someone say SPEEDO???

Alas - Dave will be so disappointed
He was going to print out the pictures and compare them with pictures of him wearing his speedo.
