The beginning of a dream come true

For decades I have dreamed of becoming a tour guide.  Just a week and a half ago I began the course to become a certified tour guide at Yad Ben Zvi in Jerusalem.  I decided to try and keep a running blog of my experiences for (at least) the following reasons:

1.) Recording some of the learning and tours here will help me to remember what I have done. This is really important because the course inundates us with an immense amount of material and I will be expected to remember a tremendous amount for the final exam(s).
2.) I am feeling a need to process the learning and explore what it means for me personally.
3.) Some of my friends or others might find it interesting to follow me through this process.

Because the writing of this is so important and is primarily for me, I don't intend to maintain the standards I would normally expect from myself before putting my writing in the public domain.
