Before lunch time we departed from the hotel at Puerto de la Cruz, and headed to La Esperanza, to get food supplies for the next days at our favorite Hiper Dino supermarket! The menu for the next days is microwave pizza, canned fish, and other nearly-delitious microwave meals.
After shopping, we then proceeded our climb through TF-24 road towards La IzaƱa observatory.
At 15:00 we were already having lunch in our Casa Solar.
The night was short again! It started very well with a Telluric star on the finder (Alpha Cygni). We acquired its spectra in the same grating position as WR 140 that we also got a spectra for next. However, the MONS telescope operator (person responsible) came to us saying we should close the dome, as the humidity and wind speed were approaching the limits. Later we had green light to open the dome again, but it was only for a short while, as the wind started blowing strong again. Maybe tomorrow it will be a better night..
