Fossils at the beach

Last we had a lot of fun at the beach! However, not exactly in the way you'd normally expect it. Equipped with our newly attained knowledge of fossils it was really cool how we could actually understand the fossils and creatures at the beach. It was amazing to be able to understand that the face of the cliff was actually 1.8 million years worth of sedimentary deposit!The fossils were even more amazing, it was cool to actually be able to see the fossils that we had been studying for the past few weeks. Just being able to think about geological formations, such as trying to figure out reasons for cliffs that were 90 degrees out of place, was mind opening. Last week was very very cool.
