But unfortunately today is not my day the sun cant get through the mist and clouds. But its certainly striking the way they tower majestically out of the water. Legs chocolates form with our will leave the islands most specs. But the chalk is also a natural raw material with many useful applications for example. Cliffs were created six million years ago in Southern Europe through the shifting of tectonic plates the chalk deposits were pushed to the north. They were thrust to the surface. Made from the remains of tiny marine organisms. Especially because no other sediments were dragged into this basin with it. And there are those for the last one hundred fifty meters or truck sediment sitting here on the surface.
