Friday the 4th of October 2019,
Today we prepared the composition of a different type of sensor containing a GSM system in stead of a GPS. We collected the thermometer we left at the port yesterday, the thermometer was still switched on, a promising sign. On monday we will retrieve and analyse the data inside.

In order to reach the goal of today (composing a new sensor) different chores had to be executed:
Buying SIM cards
We discussed several options for new thermometer containers and went of to the market in search of the ultimate box.
Trying to find battery chargers.
Collecting the thermometer at the port of Cotonou, the light was still on, so at least the batteries were still working. After the weekend we will analyze and evaluate what we have done so far. We keep you posted.
