 Early in the morning it was cloudy but at least it was not raining. A few alumni, former members of the astronomy club, together with two 10 graders from the astroelective were still eager to participate in the event. Here are some of the photos taken between 9 and 9:30, when the sky cleared out. Unfortunately no timings are available since we missed the contacts because of the weather. (During the 3rd and 4th contact it was actually raining.) Nevertheless the whole day was exciting with all students, teachers, administration and even the guards trying to get a chance to look at Venus and the Sun. Some followed the transit on-line, too. The proud feeling of being part of the big astrocommunity prevailed.
