Adventure after adventure. Today I saw the Teide mountain/volcano for the first time. My friends brought me there by car. We went up approximately 2000 meters. I do not know exactly, but we were above the clouds. A t-shirt was enough for a certain point, then I started to wear a pullover, but a coat was not needed, so the temperature was not that cold. And there was no snow either. Not even on the top of the mountain.

The first thing we saw was the Pino gordo, a tall (45.12 meters high) pine tree.

And then we went higher.

The top of the mountain is easily visible from this point.

We moved higher again. The mountain has a desert-like area in this area.

This was the point when I started to wear a pullover, because the temperature felt cold.

A few direction signs on this place.

And of course, the light point of the day. The sunset from the Teide mountain.
