What we have learned today
If the wall is overhanging, and the carabiner is at the top, for the second climber there are lots of risks if he attaches himself to the same end of the rope as the leader. Instead, the second climber should attach to himself to the end, where he was belaying. See the scheme above, where the green guy is the second to climb the route. Take into consideration the fact that he has to take the rope out of quickdraws while climbing.

Sarentino opening hours
As the weather is still not too hot, the rock is cold in the shadow. We have not yet reached the level to care about the fact that the friction is stronger when the fingers are completely cold, therefore we long for the sun just like lizards and snakes do. So sun is at work there from about 11:30 to 15:00.
