“MILK BOTTLE”
Before reaching the ‘moonscape’ at high altitude closer to the top of the volcano, the road takes you through a vast forest – almost rainforest-like in appearance. That is also where the clouds usually hang; or, as my host here put it – it’s like driving right into a milk-bottle…

Fantastic to be back on the road for the “deep dark _ pale blue”-Project. I arrived in Tenerife a couple of days ago and one of my first drives took me up the mighty volcano “Teide”, Spain’s highest mountain, where “Teide Observatory” is located. This is a special trip for me, as, for the first time in the course of this project, I will be able to spend a couple of nights at the observatory itself. Very exciting!
