David's Israel Adventure

This blog will chronicle the adventures of me, David Weinfeld, as an Otzma fellow in Israel, from August 21st, 2005 to May 29th, 2006. I hope this is as exciting for you as it is for me (though that would be a tad bizarre, now wouldn't it?).

Manual Labour

Played chess a little today with a couple of Indian brothers, Oren and Rani. Oren came to room and became utterly enhralled with the internet. He really enjoyed a Dragon Ball Z site. I had no clue what this is, but apparently it's very exciting.

In the late afternoon, Aron and I went to "Latet," a umbrella charitable organization giving food to the Israeli needy. Aron and I put stickers on boxes and then loaded the boxes onto planks. It was very hot in the warehouse, but the work wasn't so bad. Mindless, but for a good cause. Also, Haggai, the man who ran the operation, spoke only Hebrew and really quickly. He used to live in Gush Katif, but moved a year and a half ago, much of his family lived there until the recent disengagement.
