Not to totally confuse you folks, since Rachel started posting this entry, but it's Dafna now! I can tell you a little bit about my first day. As you may know, I am interning at Beit Hatfutsot, in the photo archives. Today was sort of a throw into the deep end. After being acquainted with the archivists, I started matching negatives to prints, numbering and clicking and squinting and double-checking and generally going blind. I'll take some pictures when I get a chance. So far it's a little tedious, but looking through pictures from mid-1930s Germany is sort of fascinating. A lot of Jewish kids, youth aliyah, and synagogues.
Anyway, I'm pretty beat. How was Rachel's day, you ask? I guess we'll just have to wait and find out!
What an adorable photo, ladies! Can't wait to hear more about the first week. I hope the hummus doesn't get neglected now that you're working/studying.
