Although you are responsible for making your own travel arrangements to and from La Palma, advice is available from the RGO's travel section at Cambridge (Belinda Rowlands, Tel 374888). You must, however, contact Montse Lorenzo on La Palma (Tel 405655; e-mail bookings@ing.iac.es) to book your transport up the mountain and accommodation for your stay on La Palma. Before your departure make sure you have received an information pack (from Bill Martin) that gives practical advice about your journey to La Palma and the working environment at the Observatorio.
