Another picture from our recent Iceland cruise. You can see why so many people visit to look at the geology with magnificent mountains like this.
#iceland #geology #cruise

Mountains with many layers of rock running at a slight diagonal across the picture. There is a small lake in the foreground and blue skies with a few clouds above

Yesterday we had the most amazing kayaking experience I've ever had. Lead by Camy from arbroathclifftours.com/ we paddled north from Arbroath Cliffs to visit a series of sea caves. Despite being a NE loon I had no idea how wonderful they were. Set in Lower ORS) sandstones (U ORS unconformity beautifully exposed!) narrow sea entrances gave access to passages and chambers with fantastic limestone speleothem / flow-stone. Highly, highly recommended! #Arbroath #Scotland #geology #kayaking

Sea cave chamber with brown sandstone ceiling decorated with pale streaks of speleothem flow-stone.
4 happy kayakers & 5 kayaks on pebbly beach in grotto in cliffs.
