Some images and notes
This has been a long couple of days. The imaging lab has been set up and we have been working with a workflow specialist and the conservators of the scrolls to build a system that allows orderly capture of the images. There are three basic stations that can input image data: full color, infrared and multi-spectral infrared. We will be imaging today.
The picture above is an example of typical architecture in Jerusalem. I am staying in an apartment in a section of the city that was established by the Germans in the late 19th century.
This is a view from balcony in the apartment . It is not the King David Hotel, but it is a good place to be .
There is lots of night life on main street and I am a very short walk off of the main road . The food is a mixed bag. Not all resturants are Kosher, but many are. I need to see if I can get a cheese burger at MacDonalds. That would be a Kosher no-no. The apartment that I am staying in has a Kosher Dairy kitchen, so we are not allowed to bring meat into the kitchen or use the plates for eating meat. Lots of paper plates.
