Continental Divide

Yup -that’s me. Holding the bridge up between North America and Eurasia.

Around 200 million years ago, North America was joined with Eurasian, African and South American plates until this supercontinent, known as Pangaea, started to break apart.  The Atlantic Ocean began to form to the south between Africa and South America about 135 million years ago, while the separation of the North American and Eurasian plates began around 65 million years ago.

I was actually only on LAND in Iceland for a day and a half. What an experience!!
